Browser Title Bar Tweak

This is a relatively minor thing, I suppose.

I've noticed that with the fresh install of SMF, the title bar on the browser doesn't always show the forum name. I noticed that it does here, but not in the install packages. I've gone in manually into the 'Sources' folder and change the applicable files myself for mine.

For example, before I changed it, when I clicked on on the 'Profile' button, it didn't show 'AUW FORUMS: View the profile of admin' (which is what I like for mine). It just showed 'View the profile of admin'.

So, could this be implemented? It wouldn't be hard to do because I've done it to mine. It would just be nice to have, IMO. It would make the whole forums a little more consistent in it's appearance, and make it look a little more professional, IMO.


Or is it more desirable to have it the current way for other reasons?


I'd be glad to help if this is wanted.

Didn't Burpee post something about this? I believe it is in Tips and Tricks.

Just change your index template's title element.

Personally, I prefer it without the name on every page.  It makes it several times easier to navigate around with multiple tabs or windows, because I can see what they say.

Yeah, I realize that as well. *shrug*

OK, just found it and it looks much easier. I had already found one way of doing it. Just the hard way, I guess. :P
