    HTML title tag

    Let's see how we can set an HTML title tag with Kirby.
    You can use the site wide $site->title() in connection with the title of the current page $page->title to generate something pretty decent:

    <title><?= $site->title() . ' – ' . $page->title() ?></title>

    …or…

    <title><?= $page->title() . ' | ' . $site->title() ?></title>

    …just however you prefer.

    But what if you want to have a very descriptive title for your homepage or just the site title, without adding an extra template for it?

    Kirby has the built-in $page->isHomePage() function, which makes it fairly simple to change your title only on the homepage:

    <?php if ($page->isHomePage()): ?>
<title>Welcome to my fantastic, awesome, little website</title>
<?php else: ?>
<title><?= $site->title() . ' – ' . $page->title() ?></title>
<?php endif ?>

    …or maybe just…

    <?php if ($page->isHomePage()): ?>
<title><?= $site->title() ?></title>
<?php else: ?>
<title><?= $site->title() . ' – ' . $page->title() ?></title>
<?php endif ?>
