Different Title Tag than Page Title

HubSpot Ideas

The workaround that can be applied is to use the HTML version of the blog template.
For the custom page title, go and add a custom parameter inside of the “additional <head> markup” section of the template.

This way, you will be able to choose what title you want to use for the page title rather than the blog title.

{% text "page_title" label="Page Title", value="", export_to_template_context=True %}

After you create & give the final touches to your blog template, do the following

  • In the left sidebar menu, click the Actions dropdown menu and select Clone to HTML. The template in HTML will open in a new tab.

Inside this new HTML template that you generated from your blog template, you will see that there is the <title> tag set by HS like shown in the screenshot.

Replace that line with the following script in order to use the custom parameter as the page title. I put another else condition to cover the case when there is no custom page title provided by the editor ( the default value set by HS is used in that case ).

 {% if is_listing_view %}
 <title>{{ page_meta.html_title }}</title> 
 {% else %}
 {% if widget_data.page_title.body.value %}
 <title>{{ widget_data.page_title.body.value }}</title>
 {% else %}
 <title>{{ page_meta.html_title }}</title> 
 {% endif %}
 {% endif %}

This way you will be able to set the custom title parameter at the blog post level, and this will be the only title that is used as the page title.
Till a new feature is released by HS, this is the workaround that we can do.

I hope it helps till then! :slightly_smiling_face:
