Changing CCK Title for Form

Question

By default a CCK form creation has a title of the form

 Create [Your Content Type Name Here]

I want to change mine to

 Register for Such and Such

It was suggested that I could use string-override, but I can't find the string to replace. I've also tried writing code to form_alter, but can't seem to figure out how to get the "title" to change.

Ideas?

Answer 1

There are two possibilities, either you can use the theming laying and set $title variable used in the page templage. You can do this with a preprocess function like lazy suggests.

The other options which I prefer would be to use the drupal_set_title(), this would need to go in a module. I haven't tried this, but I would think that you could use this in your hook_form_alter() implementation. That way you could control which titles get changed pretty easily.

Answer 2

Hook form_alter doesn't affect the title, but you can use a preprocess function:

Try this code to start:

function MYMODULENAME_preprocess(&$variables) {
  $variables['title'] = 'test title';
}
