FR: Use link name as page title

Open kulmann opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Public links do have a dedicated name field, but it is only used for internal handling. It would be great if we'd expose the public link name in the page title, maybe even as root element in the breadcrumbs, when visiting the public link (at the moment we only show Public link as page title segment).

Pro:

  • individualize public links to make (anonymous) users feel more at home
  • let (anonymous) users understand what the purpose of the public link is
  • especially for upload-only public links there is no other context at all, so here it's especially important

Con:

  • if someone set's a public link name without thinking about that it's exposed, one might get into trouble 😆

so it could look like this for the receiver, right: screenshot_000082

so it could look like this for the receiver, right:

Yep, exactly. The title would contain the company name suffix, so For Benedikt - Workshop notes - ownCloud. Upon navigation into a subfolder of the public link it would become subfolder - For Benedikt - Workshop notes - ownCloud.

Right now we're setting the page title Public link - ownCloud for the public link root and subfolder - Public link - ownCloud for the subfolder.

ok, cool 👍 but still unsure if using the "link name" is the right way - could be..; alternative option: use the "Space title/description etc." pattern but this would be a quite different taste (not link-specific & also for itnernals). just thinking aloud...

Yes, as an oc10+ocis we'd need to use the link name.

For ocis-only I'd be in favour of building it like the space frontpage (title, description and cover image). In that case the first solution would still be the fallback, so we'd need it anyway in my opinion.
