Question

I want to use first tag of question in page-title in question page How can I do that?

Answer 1

There may be other or simple way to make it works but here I write code for you and it's tested. Just place below two functions into your theme files and you done.

 

function get_first_tag()

{

// to check whether this is question page

if($this->template == 'question') {

 

//get current url for postid

$myurl=$this->request;

$myurlpieces = explode("/", $myurl);

$pid=$myurlpieces[0];

 

//run query to get post tags

$query = "SELECT tags FROM ^posts WHERE postid=$pid"; //run query

$tags = qa_db_query_sub($query);

 

//loop through

while($tag=qa_db_read_one_assoc($tags, true)){

$tag = explode(',', $tag['tags']); //convert tag items into array

return array_shift($tag) . ' | '; // this will get first tag from array

}

}

}

==============================================================

function head_title()

{

$pagetitle=strlen($this->request) ? strip_tags(@$this->content['title']) : '';

$headtitle=(strlen($pagetitle) ? ($pagetitle.' - ') : '').$this->content['site_title'];

 

// add tags function here

$this->output('<TITLE>'. $this->get_first_tag() . $headtitle.'</TITLE>');

}

You also can use - return $tag[0] . ' | ';  instead of - return array_shift($tag) . ' | '; up to you,

Thanks Jatin.soni for your support ;)  in fact i have placed the two functions within the class that extends qa_html_theme_base but nothing happend do i miss something ?

Answer 2

i managed to do it by simply overriding the post_tag_list  function by the following :

function post_tag_list($post, $class)

{

$this->output('<ul class="'.$class.'-tag-list">');

 

$taghtml=$post['q_tags'][0];

$this->post_tag_item($taghtml, $class);

 

$this->output('</ul>');

}

 

The tip is to remove the loop that goes through all tags and return only the first value of tags array .

but i still have a hanging issue how to apply this change only to the question list page ?
