How redeclare {title} from module

[guro]

Hello.
How i can redeclare {title}, {description}, {metadata} in my personal module?

[psy]

1. Use seotools2 or,
2. Assign each to a smarty var, then in the head section,

Code: Select all

{if !empty($mymodtitle)}{$mymodtitle}{else}{title}{/if}

You don't understand my question.
I want redeclare {title}, {description}, {metadata} without cheating in smarty. I want redeclare this variables in php code inside module.

Example for Title http://docs.cmsmadesimple.org/tags/user ... page-title

Thank you, but it's not what i need. Your example get title from content page. I need redeclare {title} from module without page content (like News, Products, CGBlog etc.).

You cannot. You can't re-declare existing plugins.
Only thing you can do is come up with other plugins with different names that do the same task.

Using Smarty templates creatively is not 'cheating'. It's what they're for so that developers do not have to overwrite/override the php in core functions, modules or plugins.


As Calguy said, if the standard plugins and/or Smarty vars don't give you what you want, write your own then call them in the templates using Smarty.

To psy, I already understand what calguy1000 said.
I just wanted to know how to override {title} from module. calguy1000 said, "You cannot". Ok. I understand.
