Hi Lee,

thanks for your reply.

I can't set the title in a macro in the header, as the content is decided by something going on further down the page. Usually you have the TITLE in your master page, and I want to change it to something else more or less dependant on the actual doc type. Fx. @nodeName is okay for all regular pages, but on all product pages I want the TITLE to be "Buy a @nodeName for only xxx DKK".

So I guess I should try and write and XSLT extension for this, if one doesn't exist already.

Best regards,
Soeren Sprogoe

You should be able to write this as a XSLT Macro,

This could use xsl:choose, when parent id=shop section, then get the the title and also the price.

Should be really simple and no need for a custom extension.

hi

i'm pretty new at everything and i'm doing ok but something i just can't get to work
i'm trying to set up a xslt file so my page title changes, but it wont grab the info out of my doc

this is my xslt file, somhow the information i put in at the tab sitename in my content manager doesn't appear in the page title:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE xsl:stylesheet [
  <!ENTITY nbsp "&#x00A0;">
]>
<xsl:stylesheet
        version="1.0"
        xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
        xmlns:msxml="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xslt"
        xmlns:umbraco.library="urn:umbraco.library" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltCommon="urn:Exslt.ExsltCommon" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes="urn:Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltMath="urn:Exslt.ExsltMath" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions="urn:Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltStrings="urn:Exslt.ExsltStrings" xmlns:Exslt.ExsltSets="urn:Exslt.ExsltSets"
        exclude-result-prefixes="msxml umbraco.library Exslt.ExsltCommon Exslt.ExsltDatesAndTimes Exslt.ExsltMath Exslt.ExsltRegularExpressions Exslt.ExsltStrings Exslt.ExsltSets ">

  <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

  <xsl:param name="currentPage"/>

  <xsl:variable name="homepageNode" select="$currentPage/ancestor::root/HomePage"/>

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <title>
      <xsl:choose>
        <xsl:when test="string-length($currentPage/data[@alias='seoTitle']) &gt; 0">
          <xsl:value-of select="$currentPage/data[@alias='seoTitle']"/>
        </xsl:when>
        <xsl:when test="$homepageNode/@id = $currentPage/@id">
          <xsl:value-of select="$homepageNode/data[@alias='siteName']"/> - <xsl:value-of select="$homepageNode/data[@alias='siteDescription']"/>
        </xsl:when>
        <xsl:otherwise>
          <xsl:value-of select="$currentPage/data[@alias='siteName']"/> | <xsl:value-of select="$currentPage/@nodeName"/>
        </xsl:otherwise>
      </xsl:choose>
    </title>
  </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Please help :D

@David: You're calling the siteName alias on both $homepageNode and on $currentPage, and in the latter case, it'll only work when you are actually on the homepage (which is then the $currentPage).

It looks like your example is a mix of pre-4.5 and post-4.5 XML schema, but on the new schema, I'd to this:

<xsl:template match="/">
 <title>
 <xsl:apply-templates select="$currentPage" mode="title"/>
 </title>
</xsl:template>
 
<!--If a node has content for the seoTitle property, output that-->
<xsl:template match="*[normalize-space(seoTitle)]" mode="title" priority="1">
 <xsl:value-of select="seoTitle"/>
</xsl:template>

<!--If we're on the homepage, output the sitename and the site description-->
<xsl:template match="HomePage" mode="title">
 <xsl:value-of select="concat(siteName, ' - ', siteDescription)"/>
</xsl:template>

<!--For all other pages, output the sitename and the name of the current page-->
<xsl:template match="*" mode="title">
 <xsl:value-of select="concat(ancestor-or-self::HomePage/siteName, ' - ', @nodeName)"/>
</xsl:template>
