Title plugin for CakePHP

A plugin to automatically generate titles for web pages using routes from the HTTP request url.

This plugin will automatically generate a working title using values such as the request's controller, action, prefix if there is one and the app name if you provide one.

You can set our own format by configuring the Component when loading it in your application.

Configuration options:

• format - How the generated title should be formatted. See valid placeholders below.
  • Default format: {{prefix} - }{{controller} - }{{action} - }{{displayField}}{ » {appName}}
  • Example generated: Admin - Files Types - View - PDF » CakePHP application
• appName - Your application's name. Used as replacement for the appName placeholder.
• ignoreIndex - If true, and the requested action is index, then the action will not be placed in the title
• showDisplayFieldOnView - If true, the display field value (e.g. the files type's name) will be placed in the title.

Valid placeholders:

• appName - Will be replaced by the app's name, if you provide one in the component's configuration
• controller - Will be replaced by the requested controller
• action - Will be replaced by the requested action
• prefix - Will be replaced by the requested prefix, if there is one.
• displayField - If your action stores an entity variable in the view, the component attempts to get the entity's display field value to display in the title
  • For example: If you have a table called Tools and the display field is the tool's name, it will place the tool's name in the title.
  • The display field value is not fetched on its own from the database. It attempts to find a view var in which to get the value from.
  • Please note that the entity variable must be named using cake's convention. A Tool entity variable must be $tool. A FilesType entity must be named $filesType.
