I’m trying to get the parent forum name in the title tag.

I made a plug in that takes care of most of it…

<?php

/*

Plugin Name: Better Titles

Author: James Dixson

*/

add_filter('bb_title', 'titlemodify');



function titlemodify( $title ) {

//your code that does something to $title;



switch ( bb_get_location() ) {

case 'topic-page':

$title = get_topic_title() . ' - ' . get_forum_name() . ' — Adventure Canoe Forum' ;

break;



case 'front-page':

$title = bb_option('name') . ' — Canoeing and Paddling Discussion' ;

break;



case 'forum-page':



$find = 'Canoe';

$string = get_forum_name() ;

if(strstr($string,$find)){

$title = get_forum_name() . ' — Adventure Canoe Forum' ;

}else{

$title = 'Canoe ' . get_forum_name() . ' — Adventure Canoe Forum' ;

}



break;

}

return $title;

}

?>

You can see it in action at http://www.adventurecanoe.com/forum

Now what I want to add is something that does this

Parent Forum Name — Forum Name — Forum Title

Basically if you went to the page http://www.adventurecanoe.com/forum/forum/rivers the title tag would read:

Canoeing Destinations — Rivers — Adventure Canoe Forum

Not the cleanest way of doing it no doubt, but I’d use something like this modified version of the breadcrumb function:

<?php

$separator = ' -- ';



if( bb_is_forum() ) :

$trail = '';

$trail_forum = bb_get_forum(get_forum_id());

$current_trail_forum_id = $trail_forum->forum_id;

while ( $trail_forum && $trail_forum->forum_id > 0 ) {

$crumb = $separator;

$crumb .= get_forum_name($trail_forum->forum_id);

$trail = $crumb . $trail;

$trail_forum = bb_get_forum($trail_forum->forum_parent);

}

$title = substr( $trail . $separator . bb_get_option( 'name' ), strlen( $separator ) );

else :

$title = bb_get_title( array( 'separator' => $separator ) );

endif;

?>	<title><?php echo $title?></title>
