Page Menu Editor is one of my favourite plugins.</p> <p>I don’t change page titles (too much hassle), but I can’t stand the title attribute being the same as the anchor text. I doesn’t make any sense and it is also annoying. Either use the title attribute properly or don’t use it at all! :-) </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/howto-menu-label-different-from-page-title#post-2027 Fri, 06 Mar 2009 20:29:54 +0000 jimg 2027@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>Thanks for the suggestion - I did use that and find it works ok. Guess I'll keep with this for now. </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/howto-menu-label-different-from-page-title#post-2026 Fri, 06 Mar 2009 20:24:34 +0000 demetris 2026@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>The plugin Page Menu Editor seems to work OK with Thematic 0.9.</p> <p>A demo I just made: <a href="http://op109.net/sandpit" rel="nofollow">http://op109.net/sandpit</a></p> <p>A quick howto: <a href="http://op111.net/59" rel="nofollow">http://op111.net/59</a></p> <p>Plugin homepage: <a href="http://www.stuffbysarah.net/blog/wordpress-plugins/page-menu-editor/" rel="nofollow">http://www.stuffbysarah.net/blog/wordpress-plugins/page-menu-editor/</a></p> <p>Cheers,</p> <p>dk </p> http://themeshaper.com/forums/topic/howto-menu-label-different-from-page-title#post-2022 Fri, 06 Mar 2009 18:08:44 +0000 jimg 2022@http://themeshaper.com/forums/ <p>I'd like to have the home page have a menu title of "Home" and a different page title "What we can do for you". There are plugs for this sort of thing, but was wondering if there was a more elegant way of doing this in a child theme? </p> <p>See <a href="http://cssglobe.com/post/3910/wordpress-hack-bulletproof-page-menu-labels" rel="nofollow">http://cssglobe.com/post/3910/wordpress-hack-bulletproof-page-menu-labels</a> where he suggests hacking classes.php and the class Walker.php to add a function code called menutext. </p> <p>Sounded good - but I don't want to violate the first rule of child templates - no core hacking. In the comments section there is a link ( <a href="http://davidmichaelthompson.com/?p=43" rel="nofollow">http://davidmichaelthompson.com/?p=43</a>) where someone took this concept and created a plugin, but when I ran it in thematic &#38; added "home" as recommended - all the menu and page titles changed to "home" :( </p>
