This part of overall_header.html adds the page title to your forum's title:

Code: Select all

<title>{SITENAME} &bull; <!-- IF S_IN_MCP -->{L_MCP} &bull; <!-- ELSEIF S_IN_UCP -->{L_UCP} &bull; <!-- ENDIF -->{PAGE_TITLE}</title>

Removing the page title part will remove it on all pages though. Something that might fit what you want is this approach:
Open styles/*yourstyle*/template/overall_header.html
Find:

Code: Select all

<title>{SITENAME} &bull; <!-- IF S_IN_MCP -->{L_MCP} &bull; <!-- ELSEIF S_IN_UCP -->{L_UCP} &bull; <!-- ENDIF -->{PAGE_TITLE}</title>

Replace with:

Code: Select all

<title>{SITENAME}<!-- IF S_IN_MCP or S_IN_UCP or PAGE_TITLE --> &bull; <!-- IF S_IN_MCP -->{L_MCP} &bull; <!-- ELSEIF S_IN_UCP -->{L_UCP} &bull; <!-- ENDIF -->{PAGE_TITLE}<!-- ENDIF --></title>

Open portal.php
Find:

Code: Select all

page_header($user->lang['PORTAL']);

Replace with:

Code: Select all

page_header();

Thank you!

Is "•" necessary?

there is still an "•" appearing at the end of the title

If you properly followed my instructions you should no longer see the bullet point. Make sure you refreshed your template cache.
