change title on tabs
hello everyone!
i'm using mozilla and when i enter to my page using mozilla's tab the name that appears on the tab is "home",as the name of my first section.i want to change it to something else.
is it possible without changing the section's name?
thank you

Hi,
in the Administration Panel -> Menu Manager (Default Menu) choose the default marked menu item and have a look at the advanced options
Cheers

1) Logging in the administration area.
2) Select the Menu Manager icon. This should take you to the Menu Manager page.
3) Look for the "Main Menu" (it is usually the first in the list) and select the icon in the "Menu Item(s)" column (third column). This should take you to the Main Menu manager page.
4) Select Home. This is going to take you to an editor page where you will be able to configure this menu item.
5) Expand the "Parameters (System)" tab located in the right column.
6) The first item: "Page Title" is what you want to change.
Try it and let me know.

Re: change title on tabs
I am sorry to ask again, but is your version 1.5.1, 1.5.2, 1.5.3....? I need the last digit of the version to check if there was a bug related to your specific version.

Re: change title on tabs
I'm using Joomla! 1.5.8 and the solutions above do not work for me. Does anyone have a solution to replace the "Home" in the browser tab to the site name?

Re: change title on tabs
I found the solution!! I am using Joomla! 1.5.8 and sh404SEF. In the sh404SEF component, there is an area for Meta Tags. Click the "Home page Meta" button at the top and input the information that you want to display. The Title tag changes the "Home" to your site name in the browser tab.

Re: change title on tabs
I just noticed in the newest version (1.5.11) it now works correctly to change the Home tab. So if you don't want to install the sh404SEF component, do this: Go to Menus / Main Menu and click on the "Home" in the list. Then click on Parameters (System) and change the Page Title. Save.
