Change Root forum title – “Forums”

[anepilep]

Hi there,

How can I change the title for only the main forum page from the default of “Forums”?

I can’t find it anywhere in forums.php.

Thank you!
Kyle

Hello @anepilep

The title on the forum-overview page is the title you have given to the page which contains the [forum]-shortcode. ??

Thanks for your quick answer! Though I still can’t get it changed. I’m using the [forum] shortcode directly on my homepage. I have the page titled “Home” on WP side… but it’s still showing “Forum” directly above the forums. I don’t have a page created even called “Forum”.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks!
Kyle

Hello @anepilep

Ah okay, I thought you mean the browser title. The page title is set to “Forum” at the overview and gets replaced by forum/topic-name when you browser your forum. So this is intended.

If you really want to change it, you can do it in the following file:
asgaros-forum\includes\views\overview.php

Just remove or edit this line of code:
echo '<h1 class="main-title">'.__('Forum', 'asgaros-forum').'</h1>';

That did it! Thanks @asgaros

I do want the forum categories to inherit the title as you intended, but just wanted to change the title of the root forum page. I was able to do so by just changing the ‘Forum’ section in the code you outlined.

Thanks again!
Kyle
