Version 3.1.4 will still be available for download here in the short term.

I updated to SF 3.1 last night on a blog running WP 2.5.1. Everything seems to be fine except that the option for “” doesn't work. The box is ticked. I have unticked it and saved the settings and then re-ticked it and it still doesn't work. None of the page titles show the forum nor the topic. I do run All-in-One-SEO pack, but disabling it did not fix the issue.
OK… so at the top where you have a big yellow rectangle with the words 'Discussion Forum” in it… is that the actual page title of your forum page (as set in Manage > Pages)?
None whatsoever but I really don't believe I have anything to remedy. The only thng I can think of is sequencing, if there is another process effecting the title and we need to resequence events. So it might be worth you having a play.
The file: sf-control.php
The line: 123
reads:
add_filter('the_title', 'sf_setup_page_title');
you can alter the sequence by oputtin a number at the end as:
Low numbers get operated on first, higher number later. Might be worth setting it to 20 or 30 to see of that makes any difference. My best bet still is that this is interference from something.

You mean it's not a bug that the Show Forum/Topic in Page Title doesn't work? Even though it used to?
I don't know what could be interfering. Yesterday when I disabled every plugin except SF in order to troubleshoot another problem the forum/topic titles were *still* not showing. Unless deactivated plugins can affect activated plugins, I don't see how this isn't a problem with the new version of SF.
But I'll try that bit of code and see what happens.
also, if you could please post the value in the wp_options table, the option_value for the option_name sftitle…
thanks…
Are you suggesting this could be a problem with the php serialize statement? It's true we've seen that elsewhere before but why would it be unique to Grant on the page title? Unless it's a php version issue which might be a possibility. But yes - agreed - it might be educational to see what the database holds for this…
Thanks Grant. I'll take this away and have an explore.
Mr Papa was right that we have had serialisation problems before. This is a php thing that doesn't always work according to the manual. I'll run this through some tests…
Well the first thing to say is that your string is identical to my string so it is not the php serialise function that is at fault. Having said that, I guess it could be the unserialise function! I can think of only one way of testing that and that is to replace the string directly into the database without going through the Admin > Options screen. The warning here, of course, is that if you change any other options this will go back to what it is now but it may, at least, prove one way or the other if this is where the fault lay.
So - if you are happy to try this, the replacement value is:
This basically shows the values as strings instead of booleans which will work fine with the code that reads it in. If this works, it would be useful to know what version of php you are using there. It will also mean, of course, that I will have to re-code quite a bit of the admin options to cater for serialise/unserialise problems that some versions may have.
If, on the other hand it does not do the trick I might have to ask you to do another little code dump for me but let's cross that bridge if we need to.
Not only did it not work, but when I went to the SF options, both Show Forum/Topic in Page Title and were checked and the field next to Graphic Replacement URL had an “a” in it.
well, did you type it in just like Andy had? I am not sure why it shows two diff styles of double qoutes… I hope you just used a good, old normal double quote..

I'm also having the same problem with the page titles. It worked before I upgraded, but doesn't now.
