    Is it possible to change the title of the Location page? I would rather it read something like Local Racks than Location. My goals are:
    1) change the url
    from http://website.com/location/
    to http://website.com/localracks/
    This was successfully done by changing the permalink.

    2) change the Title on the page
    from Location
    to Local Racks
    I know this can be done by editing the page in WordPress but have read in numerous places on the site and the forum that we should not be messing with the virtual pages like the Location page.

    3) change the browser tab for the Location page
    from Location | Website Name
    to Local Racks | Website Name
    I assume this will automatically happen when the change is made in goal #2 above.

    Can I change the title of the Location page?
    If not, suggestions?

    You can go to the wp_posts table in your database and change the post_title of the virtual page.
    But Let’s ask Paolo as well, he might have a better suggestion, or even tell us this is not a good idea. I tried it on my test site and it does not seem to be a problem, but I am not 100% sure.

    Thanks, Guust. I can definitely make that change and, as suggested, will wait to see what Paolo says.

    I would set Location peramlink to localracks in GD >> Permalinks and in the translation file edit “Location” to “Local Racks”. http://docs.wpgeodirectory.com/category/translation/

    I wouldn’t modify post title in the db which in the end is the same to changing the page title in the Wp dashboard. It shouldn’t be necessary.

    Let us know,

    Thx

    I knew that 🙁
    Temporary slip of concentration 🙂
