How to change category title in wordpress? - GoFuckYourself.com

MyDogHasFleas · 02-11-2012, 01:36 AM

I don't know if this is a stupid question or not. Is there a way to change the title of each category from within the wordpress admin? I want to have a unique title for each category page.

I'm guessing you're asking if you can change the titles of a wordpress category after you've made it? You just go to the admin area and hover over the posts area on the left and click on categories. In that area click on the category you want to edit and on the first line you can change the title of it. And change the slug title under that too.

If that's not what you mean, then maybe some more info on what you want to do.

I might be wrong, but I think that with the "SEO Ultimate" plugin you can do this and more, very easy.

What I want is every category page to have a different title from the main page. This way I can make unique titles for each category page.

wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=category

Just make sure the category and slug have different names. The category will be listed on the sidebar (by default template tags) and the slug will be in the url.

If you had the category titled teens, listed on the sidebar, but when you click the link, you want something different, change the slug, it will take you too an address such as www.yoursite.com/category/randomteens/

The words abuse here is you posting in people's threads.

It seems that a few of you understand what I'm asking. I want to have a 100% different title for each category page. I see that All in One SEO has the category name as part of the title.

domain.com has a title.
domain.com/category/anal/ I want it to have a 100% unique title for SEO purposes.

You need to create a custom categories page (file)... Most newer themes have a category.php file already in the theme so all you need to do is remove the <?php get_header() ?> line and copy your themes header to the top of the categories.php file.

Then for the Page titlte (assuming of course you're talking about the <title></title> section, you just need to get the category name and echo it there...

Something like this should work:

Code:

<?php $cats = get_the_category(); ?>
<title><?php echo $cats[0]->name; ?> </title>
