3.1. Change site name

After installing a website, the site name is recorded in sites directory in a config file of this website. If you wish to change the site name through CMS interface, then it can be considered as language phrase and a block must be added for such site name. Language module must be installed.

For example, imagine that you wish to change the website title (site name) to be in English "Manuals for Allmice CMS".

List the language phrases for module GlobalCore and language English (URL: [path-to-your-site]/language/list-phrases).
Edit the following language phrase changing Phrase text: to "Manuals for Allmice CMS":
Language code: en
Phrase text: Manuals for Allmice CMS
Type: 11
Module name: GlobalCore
Specific name: siteName
Uri: siteName

Add a block (URL: [path-to-your-site]/block/add) with following details:
Block code: siteName
Block building module: GlobalCore
Type: siteName
Block building method: getSiteName
Region code: siteName
Access right for roles: admin, anonymous, authenticated (and all other roles if any)
Rank: 1
Path:
Block status: Active
Language code: en

Now the site name should be changed to "Manuals for Allmice CMS".
