SEO: dynamic TITLE-Tag in Arcade

Hello,

using ibProArcade v2.6.8+ and later you have a new setting in AdminCP -> Arcade -> Main Settings to adapt the TITLE-Tag within the Arcade.

This way it is possible to say "playing Snake" in the TITLE which is good for search-engine-optimization.


I am sorry to forget to adapt the ARCADE-Template in the release of v2.6.8+ so please do the following manual adaption to the ARCADE-Template in your style(s) to make use of the dynamic TITLE:

search for

<title><phrase 1=$vboptions[bbtitle]>$vbphrase[x_powered_by_vbulletin]</phrase></title>

and replace it with

<title>$ibprotitle</title>

Please notice that this will only work and have effect if you correctly upgraded to ibProArcade v2.6.8+ meaning all files need to be actual version.


Enjoy

to fix this

open arcade/functions/functions.php

find

below that paste

		$templater->register('ibprotitle', $ibprotitle);

The title will now work on vB4

Hello to everybody, I have a question: is it possible to customize the title of the arcade section as follows:

home of the arcade section --> "my title for arcade section"
each games/each page --> using the %action% tag

So, show a different title only for the home page.
Thanks for help!

This fix works on 3.7X too..
