Hi @robert,

Is there a function that displays the forum or topic title ? I have a header on my community page that I would like to change to be the forum or post title dependant on the selection.

I thought I could use something like this, but it doesn't seem to work

function vComp4(){
$getwpforotitle = $post['title'];
if(empty($getwpforotitle))
{
$getwpforotitle = "Title is empty"; 
}
return $getwpforotitle;
}
add_shortcode( 'wpforo-get-title', 'vComp4' );

To clarify, I'm looking for the PHP variable of "wpforo-title"

I'm sorry but there is no an easy way do do this. I'd recommend this code, it may work.

function vComp4(){
    if( is_wpforo_page() ){
        if( wpfval(WPF()->current_object, 'topic', 'title') ) {
            $title = WPF()->current_object['topic']['title'];
        } elseif( wpfval(WPF()->current_object, 'forum', 'title') ) {
            $title = WPF()->current_object['forum']['title'];
        } elseif( wpfval(WPF()->current_object, 'user', 'display_name') ) {
            $title = WPF()->current_object['user']['display_name'];
        } else {
            $title = "Title is empty";
        }
    }
    return $title;
}
add_shortcode( 'wpforo-get-title', 'vComp4' );

In case you want to say thank you !)

Thanks @robert. I'll give this a try. If all else fails, there's always wp_title() and regex. A little clunky, but would do the job I expect - just not very efficiently
