TGPX Question: How The Hell To I Automatically Insert The Category's Name Into The HTML??

[Greenguy]

I assumed this would work:
{$category.name|htmlspecialchars}

But obviously I'm dumb. I have the feeling I'm missing something like maybe coding that needs to be added to the top of the page so that it works, but fuck me if I can find it |facepalm|

Can anyone tell me WTF I'm doing wrong? Or show me an example of it in action?

Thank you :)

Nevermind |facepalm|

{$page_category.name|htmlspecialchars}

(leaving this here as yet another example of my stupidity)

I'm not aware of a template variable that displays the current category value.

When you Add TGP Page, if you assign it a category, the name of that category will be inserted anytime it sees:
{$page_category.name|htmlspecialchars}

I just tried it on the Porn Luv Amateur (http://www.pornluv.com/amateur.html) category page & it works.

So this:
<title>{$page_category.name|htmlspecialchars} Porn Luv</title>
Becomes this:
<title>Amateur Porn Luv</title>

This:
<meta name="description" content="Porn Luv provides you with daily NSFW {$page_category.name|htmlspecialchars} picture and movie galleries.">
Becomes this:
<meta name="description" content="Porn Luv provides you with daily NSFW Amateur picture and movie galleries.">

...and so on.

I didn't try this:
category={$page_category.name|htmlspecialchars}
Because I actually knew that:
category=MIXED
Would be ok since I assigned the page a category & TGPX automatically changes it to that category.

Of course, I just |banghead| for a good hour or so trying to figure out why {$category.name|htmlspecialchars} wouldn't work, which is what we use for the category lists on all the pages.

I'm too embarrassed to tell anyone how I realized my mistake.

Don't waste time being embarrassed dammit.

You got it figured out, so you learned something. +1 for Greenguy today, ya know?

I have spent countless hours searching code for an issue only to find it being one misplaced parentheses or some other programming 101 error and I have been doing this shit for over 30 years.

You have figured out a whole mess of stuff this week. Kudos to you |banana|
