Hi everyone.

I’ve noticed a small issue with articles plugin. https://modx.com/extras/package/articles

Tag and Author pages are using the same title

and <long title> as the blog home page. <p>Ideally, Author page should be like: “Articles by <em>author</em>” Tag page should be like: “Tag: <em>TagName</em>”</p> <p>Is there an easy way to fix this?</p> <p>Thanks.</p> </long>

Let's continue in the right issue. From: https://github.com/modxcms/Articles/issues/147#issuecomment-952745078

@carlo-13 getPage and getArchives, see: https://github.com/modxcms/Articles/blob/48956b4bfe286d8bb4784ff6b2567c81ac99b58a/core/components/articles/model/articles/articlescontainer.class.php#L328

Hi @JoshuaLuckers , sorry for my late reply.

I’m not a developer, I’m afraid I won’t be able to help 😬. Do you think this is something you could fix, I’m willing to financially participate if needed ( but I need to know how much/long this could take ). If you don’t have time or are not interested (perfectly fine with me), would it be ok if I bring another developer to fix the issue?

Let me know.

Tks a lot.

No problem! I'm not a maintainer of getPage and Archivist. However everyone is free to open a pull request, or fork the extra and submit an update to the existing extra (after MODX reviews it). I appreciate you want to offer money for it but sadly I simply don't have time for it..

I think it's totally fine if you bring in another developer to fix the issue!

I have tried to push a fix for the issue ( I hope I didn’t do anything wrong, I’m not too familiar with github ). The solution was provided on modx forum: https://community.modx.com/t/looking-for-a-developer-to-fix-the-articles-plugin/4569/2

I have added a new snippet and changed the page title on the article container.
