Hi Micdu,

You should not hack core files, ever. Besides the possibility that you introduce a vulnerability the file, with your changes, will be overwritten when Joomla is updated. Sure, you can avoid updating but then you have to personally fix any vulnerabilities that are discovered and then fixed in future releases, or run a install with a known vuln.

Don't hack core files.

Why don't you tell us what it is you are trying to achieve? Why do you want to modify the content of head? There are, no doubt, far better ways to do it than modifying head.php.

Regards,
Victoria

Try this,

Sometimes Its not recommended editing core files.

You can find the meta and title section of the Joomla sites.

libraries\joomla\document\html\renderer\head.php
contains a function fetchHead()

Hope it also helped...

Victoria

Viktoria has given you the correct path to the head renderer file, however you should not override this file, clone it in your template folder and include it in your templates index.php or just create a new renderer for it.

Question is: what did you try? Give some more informations and people can help you better...
