Smart Page Titles


Description


Before this mod, page titles in Wikka corresponded to their WikiName.
Although this is consistent with Wiki philosophy, in some cases having a dumb WikiName as a title is pretty limiting:
  • WikiNames make VeryLongTitlesQuiteDifficultToUnderstand;
  • They are not an optimal solution for visibility in search engines;
  • They cannot contain accents or other special characters;


After this mod, page titles correspond to the first header found in the page. If no header is found, then the page's WikiName is displayed.

Code


Add this code to /wikka.php:
	function PageTitle() {
		$title = "";
		$pagecontent = $this->page["body"];
		if (ereg( "(=){3,5}([^=]+)(=){3,5}", $pagecontent, $title)) {
			$formatting_tags = array("**", "//", "__", "##", "''", "++", "#%", "@@", "\"\"");
			$title = str_replace($formatting_tags, "", $title[2]);
		}
		if ($title) return $title;
		else return $this->GetPageTag();
	}


Then make the following change in /actions/header.php

old:
       <title><?php echo $this->GetWakkaName()." : ".$this->GetPageTag(); ?></title>

new:
       <title><?php echo $this->GetWakkaName()." : ".$this->PageTitle(); ?></title>
