Display Name instead of Page Title in Site admin (Classic and Touch UI) in AEM 6.2

Hi,

If you look at the Siteadmin board of AEM, page titles are displayed in tree hierarchy in Classic UI. However if you see the same in Touch page are created in http://localhost:4502/sites.html/content.

All the pages can be shown in different views
1. Card View
2. Column View
3. List View

In both the views(Classic/Touch) page title are displayed.
In this blog we will learn how to display page name in place of page title.

Solution for Classic UI:

First, we should know from where these values are coming.

In Classic UI "/libs/cq/ui/widgets/source/ext/override/widgets/tree/TreeNodeUI.js" is responsible for tree hierarchy in Siteadmin.

In TreeNodeUI.js file, Go to Line No-85 and find the below code.

We need to change the above code with below code

Solution for Touch UI:

In the Card View: This  script "/libs/cq/gui/components/coral/admin/page/card/card.jsp" helps to render the page list in card view.

In the Column View:

The script "/libs/cq/gui/components/coral/admin/page/columnitem/columnitem.jsp" handles the column View and
this script "/libs/cq/gui/components/coral/admin/page/columnpreview/columnpreview.jsp"

handles the preview of column view.

To make changes in jsp files of all views:
Replace this line:

to

But Ideally we don’t make any change in /libs/hierarchy, so we are overlaying this part of /libs in /apps and making modification in /apps hierarchy

This is how, we can replace pageTitle with pageName in tree hierarchy in both the consoles(Classic and touch UI).

You can find code for the same also while downloading the package.
