Remove Main Index

How do I remove the words "main index" from the title of the main reviewpost page? Thanks.

You can update the language string in admin edit strings to be empty. Otherwise you would edit the pp-inc.php file the function printheader to remove it.

Please be specific as to how I edit the pp-inc.php file. Thanks.

Also, if I click Edit Language Strings in Admin, I get about 51 pages of stuff. Where do I go?

Have you tried the edit language string thing first thats something you can do without editing code. We do not specifically support code alteration.

Oh, and if I remove the string, I get a hyphen (-) at the beginning now. How do I get rid of the hyphen?

Yeah, but I get the hyphen in front, as noted.

well it depends but you see this type of code line around line 736 twice one for vb one for not

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

remove this

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

But then note doing this means non of your title replaces show.

I did this, but now I want to get that string back. How do I do so? A search for Main Index using Search Language Strings does not turn up the string any longer.

You will need to browse through the strings then and hit revert and submit when you find it.

This is insane. There are 101 pages of strings. Definitely a flawed design.

Not really at all.

Remember strings would not be empty by nature EVER. Users would change them to another wording. This issue would be the same in any product you set the wording blank so there is nothing wrong with the product. You started to ask code modification question or how to do something outside the normal operation of things.

I understand. But I can't really see how any user would be happy with the words "Main Index" as the first two of a page title, especially a landing page. I have found that PhotoPost's products are not indexed well by the search engines, so page titles become very important. "Main Index" is not going to help much. Have seen many people requesting this change.

You can gladly change the wording to whatever you wish as it is the main index but that was not really the discussion we where having here. This is one of the reasons companies do not support or assist in code hacking and such outside normal operation of software. I am always relunctant on telling people how to do something outside the normal parameters because any unexpected behavior.
