When I need to add a custom page to Wordpress based site I always load the theme's header first:
<?php
require('../wp-blog-header.php');
include('../wp-content/themes/mytheme/header.php');
?>
Unfortunately then every custom page gets the same title (the blog's name) due to this code in header.php:
<head>
<title><?php if(is_home()) { bloginfo('name');} else { bloginfo('name'); echo ' | '; the_title(); } ?></title>
What would be the best way to change this page title?
- Is there a wordpress method to call before loading the header that will change
the_title()'s return value? - Should I change the header.php call so it will check if there is a previously defined custom value for my title?
Thanks,
