[TYPO3-dev] Page title as cObject

[Rik Willems]

Hi,

Currently we can combine config.noPageTitle = 2 and page.headerData.5 = 
TEXT (COA) to create a custom <title> tag for our pages. This works, but 
not for indexers (in my case Solr). This is because this technique 
doesn't actually change the page title for TYPO3, but only the output.

tt_news changes the page title for single view by:
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->page['title'] = $row['title'];
$GLOBALS['TSFE']->indexedDocTitle = $row['title'];

When I use typoscript to display lists or records on pages the page 
title for TYPO3 remains the title of the page it is shown on. For the 
Solr indexer (and perhaps the indexed_search indexer too) this is very 
uncomfortable. The search results all display the same titles.

Would it be a good idea to create an option to render the page title 
through a cObject? Now I used config.titleTagFunction to use a 
userfunction which is a bit of a detour.

What do you think?

Cheers!
