[SOLVED] How to get an exclamation mark in the site's name?

[buonumore]

If I put an exclamation mark in the "site name" field I get these charachters (in red):

My Site Name!

Any ideas?  ;)

[Rolf]

When I put ' Sitename! ' in the field Site Name in the Global Settings it shows Sitename! on my teststite...

Or do you mean something else...

Rolf 

[buonumore]

Not in mine, unfortunately!

In the attached image, thaa'ts what I get with "TEST!". 

Thanks Rolf!


[OT] Holland rules, see you there next april!!

[Rolf]

And what if you put TEST! in the sitename field? Or should that be to simple

What version are you on? As I recall an issue in previous versions... Current 1.6.6 should work fine....

@Rolf: yes, too simple, I tried it earlier! 

@Ronny: 1.6.6 Bonde

Thanks both!!

[Rolf]

And what if you put TEST! or TEST! in the html template?

Code: Select all

<title>{title} | {sitename}</title>
{* The sitename is changed in Site Admin/Global settings. {title} is the name of each page *}

Fill in your sitename in stead of {sitename}

If I simply replace "{sitename}" with "TEST!", it won't change and remain "TEST".

If I replace "{sitename}" by "TEST!", it appears exactly like that "TEST!". 

Maybe it's controlled somewherelse as well??

[Rolf]

it won't change and remain "TEST".

You mean TEST!... I think 

In the config.php you can try to set the text encoding to utf-8.
A wild guess, but what do you have to loose... 

Code: Select all

$config['default_encoding'] = 'utf-8';
$config['admin_encoding'] = 'utf-8';

Within Temptation, cool. Heard of Delain aswell I think 

[buonumore]

I think I've found where's the misunderstanding between us!

I'm talking about the "inside theme", not the IE window, or whatever!

It's IN the template that I can't get the exclamation mark to work.

Sorry if I didn't express myself clearly enough!!!


[OT] I only know "April rain" from Delain, and really love it! The singer is a beauty, I love redhead girls!! I have a very good friend living in Haarlem, Jeroen, so i bought some tickets for the show there (8th april). Unfortunately it will be an acoustic show...

This is where a link to the site would help, it would be obvious what and where the problem is you are talking about...

You sure like the color button  ...

[buonumore]

Oh yes, thank you!

Here you are: www.cerco-casa.info

I like colors, right!

[tgnc.org.uk]

Layout > Templates > {Your templatename}

Find this

{sitename}

And then try adding ! rather than the HTML entity value, I just tried this with my CMS and it showed up the ! as a !.

Change it to this...

{sitename}!

[buonumore]

Thanks a lot for your idea, but unfortunately it didn't work.

I'm using the (beautiful) GreenHills theme.

I don't have the exact line you wrote, but - if I understood your suggestion - i made the following.

Code: Select all

<title>{sitename} - {title}</title>

I added the exclamation mark...

Code: Select all

<title>{sitename}! - {title}</title>

But... no changes! 

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

[Rolf]

But... no changes!

Thats right because you changed the sitename in the webbrowser 
You have to look further down in the template and you will find the line in the post from tgnc.org.uk

Code: Select all

      <div id="header">
           <h2 class="headright">{sitename}</h2>
           <hr class="accessibility" />
      </div>
