How do set the page title for an EasyTable?

From the Menu

EasyTable lets you create a menu items that show:

  • List's of Published tables
  • A specific table
  • A specific record in a table (in EasyTable Pro)

Like all other menu items in Joomla, creating an EasyTable menu item is quite simple, the first step is to choose a menu item type and then give it a name. If you've created a menu item in Joomla before this next image should be familiar:

When creating menu items in Joomla one of the most overlooked aspects are the Parameters (System) - found in the panels on the left of the menu screen. Amongst other things they let you control the appearance and text of a page title when it's linked to from a menu item.

If you add any text to the "Page Title" box it will over-ride the table name for the title of the page, otherwise the table name becomes the page title.

Remember this doesn't change the name of the table just the page title that is shown on that table when accessed through that menu item.

From the Table list?

If you create a menu-item that show a list of all published tables, the list of tables will inherit the "Page Title" text but, then tables accessed from that list will always have the actual table name as the page title.  There isn't a Joomla compliant want to change the page title of tables from the table lists.

In versions prior to 1.0.1 the table name was overlooked when generating the page title.
