Provide a way to hide title on the panel, but still set the page TITLE element

I need to do the same, I currently have a title I do not want appearing and I have no way of removing it as the form specifies I must enter a title. Does anyone know a way round it? I have attached a screenshot of my login/register page. It is the text I have renamed to "Title" (as an example) which I would like to remove from view.

Any ideas would be much appreciated

Thanks

Yes that is right.. I want no title at all. I already have a breadcrumb stating the title, and it will look messy repeating login or register when it is written below already on the two panes within the panel. I am unable to leave the 'page title' blank in the settings tab as it is starred red and therefore won't let me leave it blank.

Please see screen shot attached

Thanks

Excuse my ignorance.. I am fairly new to Drupal! How would I go about hiding it with the node template?

Many thanks

Sorry, just going back to your original post joachim, that is exactly what I want to do. On some occasions I want to use a nice graphic for a page title but obviously it's still important to have a title for the page for the browser and whatnot. Did you manage to find a solution to your problem in the end?

While no one's supporting the D5 version, I will comment that the problem here is that Drupal provides only 1 way to set the title: drupal_set_title(). It sets both the title element and the visible page title.

page.tpl.php renders both of these.

Panels has absolutely no way to interact with this, especially in D5. In D6 it is vaguely possible that a preprocess function could do something, but I am not sure it is worth adding a UI element for something that is unlikely to see much use, and instead to encourage those few who need it to take care of it at their own theme layer.

Yes I have this use case only in D6, but I see your point that it's not worth coding if not enough people will be making use of it! Many thanks for all your hard work with this great module!

Just in case someone else stumbles upon this like I did there are two variables in your page.tpl.php file:

$head_title - used in the head portion of the html document

and

$title - used in the body portion of the html document

In my case I was setting the title manually for a custom panel page, but I didn't want that title to actually display on the page because it was already displaying via the menu. All I needed to do was a simple if statement in my theme_preprocess_page function to unset the $title variable.

And http://drupal.org/project/simple_page_title is supposed to support this ability, but I haven't been able to *find* it once installed in D7 yet...

BTW, in order to effect the same result I simply started hiding the content-area page title in Panels pages with jQuery:

jQuery('#page-title').hide();
