How to set the page title for controller actions?

Question

I want to have different title (in head) for each Controller and action. How to do this from the controller?

Answer 1

Your Controller

    class SiteController {
        public function actionIndex() {
            $this->pageTitle = 'Home page';
            //...
        }

        //..
    } 

Layout file

    <title><?php echo $this->pageTitle; ?></title>

Maybe you forgot to add reference in your html?
