XF 1.4 Possible to Change Page Node <Title> Dynamically?

[WearableTechForums.com]

I have a page node that I control via an external PHP script via a callback. Even though the page node is in actuality many pages, due to the PHP script, the page title is always the same. Is there any way to control the <title> dynamically from my PHP script?

The <title> can be set in the content template with this code:

<xen:title>TITLE HERE</xen:title>

The default content template for all page nodes is:

Admin CP -> Appearance -> Templates -> pagenode_container

For your purposes you probably want to use a callback to set a different content template so you can change the xen:title code for a specific page node. Here is a guide:

Thanks—I was able to follow your directions until the last part, because I'm already using the includeFile callback function here. i.e. I can't specify two callbacks on one page node. Is there a solution to this?

Also, I want to make sure we're on the same page that I'm looking to control the title from the PHP file I'm including.

I can't be more specific in my instructions. Those are all of the programming tools available which can allow you to:

1) Override the content template for a specific page node.

2) Define the page title in that content template.

Beyond that it is a programming problem that requires more specific questions if I am to help.

Note that you can define template variables for use in the content template like this:

$response->params['customTitle'] = 'Some title here';

That would allow you to use this in your content template:

<xen:title>{$customTitle}</xen:title>

Thanks! Based on the various instructions you've provided across the site, I was able to figure it out!
