BN *Title Field Label Changer 1.0.2
Development and Programming
This Expression Engine extension allows you to change the *Title field label text on publish and edit weblog pages on a per-weblog basis.
My clients eventually ask whether the text in the *Title label can be changed to something more descriptive and suited to the particular purpose. For instance: *Job Opening, *Street Address, *Lamp System, or *Sku Number, etc. This extension will allow you to change the *Title label text to whatever suits you.
This extension changes the *Title label non-destructively, only changing the appearance of it on the backend using JavaScript. This does not affect SAEF forms.
I hope you find this useful. See attached files.
======= UPDATE ============= Sorry about those bugs guys, they should be fixed now. It’s weird, I have this installed on two totally different systems, and neither one reported those errors. I must have error reporting turned off in my sandbox for some inexplicable reason, but I can’t imagine why the other system didn’t report that error. Oh well, whatever. Let me know if you experience any further issues.
======= Update 2-17-10 ======= Minor bugfix update. Should be MSM compatible, now. I think the last few versions have been MSM compatible, but I’m not sure if we released them. So here’s a minor update that’s definitely MSM compatible.
File updated below.
This has been one of the little nuisances I’ve had since I started using EE and practically any other CMS actually. I know it’s just a visual thing, but it makes publishing just seem to make more sense.
Thanks for the contribution! Installing now..
UPDATE: Not sure if this is something on my end, but when I go into the settings page, I’m getting some issues relating to LG Addon Updater:
Notice: Undefined variable: check_for_udpates in /home/stuff/domains/domain.com/public_html/system/extensions/ext.bn_title_changer.php on line 501
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at /home/camerahi/domains/camerahive.com/public_html/cybertron/extensions/ext.bn_title_changer.php:501) in /home/camerahi/domains/camerahive.com/public_html/cybertron/extensions/ext.lg_htaccess_generator_ext.php on line 672I am also getting these problems in the Publish/Edit pages as well. It could be on my end, but hopefully you can diagnose it.
I’ll fix.
thank you, much needed extension however throwing this error at me!
Notice: Undefined variable: js in D:\Programs\XAMPP_1.6.7\htdocs\system\extensions\ext.bn_title_changer.php on line 708
and yes “jQuery for the Control Panel” is enabled.
Updated to fix both of those issues. Let me know if you have any additional issues.
Something wrong with check_for_extension_updates option
Notice: Undefined index: check_for_extension_updates in D:\Programs\XAMPP_1.6.7\htdocs\system\extensions\ext.bn_title_changer.php on line 449
But if I go back and try the entry page, title replacement is working fine!
Seems to have solved the trick for me. Thanks for the neat little add-on. =)
Cem Meric, fixed.
Thank you Chris, much appreciated.
Great extension Chris! Very handy indeed.
This was exactly where I was looking for, Thank you 😉
Glad it’s getting some use!
Was wondering if this can be made to work with SAEF?
Just change the following in your SAEF:
Title
<input type="text" name="title" id="title" value="{title}" size="50" maxlength="100"></p>Change the word “TITLE”
lol love when it’s just that easy. Thanks!
