how to remove site title from administrator area?

Post by rw1 » Sat May 03, 2008 5:41 pm

Hello,

I have removed the reference to the site title in:

/administrator/templates/khepri/index.php
/administrator/templates/khepri/login.php (removed it from the login page)

however the site title is still showing up when i am in the administrator area.

Can anyone tell me which file i have to edit to remove the title from this area?

I am using the default 1.5 administrator template 'khepri'.

Thank You :)

ok i figured out a little clue, the site title can be turned off in the kehpri template parameters - but when you turn it off it defaults to showing 'Administration' - so i would also like it not to display this? Any ideas? I'll post when i figure it out!
Ciao :)

ok, i havent figured it out yet, but this may be of use to someone, it controls the amont of padding on the left hand side of the title 'Administration' in the administrator area - it is in administrator/khepri/css/general.css:

Code: Select all

#border-top .title {
	font-size: 22px; font-weight: bold; color: #fff; line-height: 44px;
	padding-left: 180px;
}
If anypne knows how to remove 'Administration' completely please let us know.

Thanks!

I'm getting closer!

To remove it from the login page, in administrator/templates/khepri/login.php find:

Code: Select all

<div>
<span class="title"><?php echo $this->params->get('showSiteName') ? $mainframe->getCfg( 'sitename' ) : JText::_('Administration'); ?></span>
</div>
and replace with:

Code: Select all

<div>
<span class="title"><?php echo $this->params->get('showSiteName') ? $mainframe->getCfg( 'sitename' ) : JText::_(''); ?></span>
</div>
Still trying to figure out how to remove it from administrator Control Panel page - any ideas appreciated!

Did you try looking in the administrator/index.php ?

Thanks,

Hello.

I opened this file:

administrator/templates/khepri/cpanel.php (line 49)

Code: Select all

<span class="title"><?php echo $this->params->get('showSiteName') ? $mainframe->getCfg( 'sitename' ) : JText::_('Administration'); ?></span>
I changed the line of code to read this:

Code: Select all

<span class="title"><?php echo $this->params->get('') ? $mainframe->getCfg( '' ) : JText::_('TEST'); ?></span>
BUT...it only changes the Title at the top of the Admin area when you click on SITE > CONTROL PANEL

So then I looked in this file:

administrator/templates/khepri/index.php (line 50)

Code: Select all

<span class="title"><?php echo $this->params->get('showSiteName') ? $mainframe->getCfg( 'sitename' ) : JText::_('Administration'); ?></span>
I changed the line of code to read this:

Code: Select all

<span class="title"><?php echo $this->params->get('') ? $mainframe->getCfg( '' ) : JText::_('TEST'); ?></span>
That seemed to work for the rest of the pages. So just delete [showSiteName] [sitename] and [Administration] if you don't want it to show anything up there.

Thanks,
r32

For further admin area tweaking, you can change the Joomla! Administration Login title in administrator/templates/khepri/login.php, find:

Code: Select all

<h1><?php echo JText::_('Joomla! Administration Login') ?></h1>
replace with:

Code: Select all

<h1><?php echo JText::_('What You Would Like Here') ?></h1>
ps i cant edit my first post to have a solved icon - mods please mark as solved if possible, thank you.
pps definitive guide on these tweaks and more now posted here.

if you want to edit the top joomla title go to administrator/templates/khepri/images

You can then edit the images and put your own title up there. Hope that helps.

Very simple - Just a small change in the template general.css file from

Code: Select all

#border-top .title {
	font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: #F4F4F4; line-height: 44px;
	padding-left: 60px;
}
to

Code: Select all

#border-top .title {
	font-size: 0px; font-weight: bold; color: #F4F4F4; line-height: 44px;
	padding-left: 60px;
}

A bit late but I needed this myself. It's amazing how I didn't realise I needed this sooner, it makes all the difference when you have many tabs open.

- Open /administrator/templates/yourtemplatename/index.php
- Somewhere before <!DOCTYPE html> and after
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$doc = JFactory::getDocument();
add

$doc->setTitle(strip_tags($app->JComponentTitle).' - '.JText::_('JADMINISTRATION') .' - '.$app->get('sitename'));
Or
$doc->setTitle(strip_tags($app->JComponentTitle) .' - '.$app->get('sitename'));
