curious_scouter Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 When you click into a topic, is there a configuration in the back end that will put the topic subject in the browser title? I usually come, open the unread messages stream, and then I'll open several in new tabs and read through. But each tab just says "Scouter Forum", so if I need a refresh I need to scroll to the top of page. Not a HUGE deal, but thought I'd file the though/request and see. Thanks in advance for anything 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RememberSchiff Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) One end-user solution is a browser add-on to rename/retitle Tab manually. For example, there are Firefox add-ons Rename Tab Title and Tab Retitle. Note these add-ons are not actively monitored for security by Mozilla. Can be tedious to use and there is security concern. Agree with your suggestion, a better solution would be for the forum software to provide webpage title options.

curious_scouter Posted June 19, 2022 Author Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) Yeah, that's what I was asking. If someone who administrates the forum could look to see if there is an option to enable discussion topic titles in the browser title bar. I went to the invision site to see if I could find info about the setting to suggest. I could not but while there I noticed their forums have this. See screenshots attached for what I mean. ETA: That long text "Option for homepage title..." that's the topic title I was currently viewing. On the Scouter Forum site it's always just "Scouter Forum".

RememberSchiff Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Like it. I will ask, hopefully that functionality is in our base software. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
