One of the early requests of members using ASM2 was the ability to set the index page with a title independant of the standard title stuff that was preconfigured within the script.
Based on the answer provided for in the forum, this is how we have developed it on our sites :
Edit the script/config.php file and add a new variable named $idxtitle and add in the title that you want displayed on your index page.
Next edit the script/defaultpage.php file and add in the control variable $idxTitle as the first line of code, set it to '1' or '0' if you don't want the title to be displayed.
