Right now, on all the category pages, I just have the title of my website, like this:
Blog Title
From:
<title>{exp:weblog:info weblog=”{master_weblog_name}”}{blog_title}{/exp:weblog:info}</title>

What I’d like is if it’s a category page to have:
Blog Title - Category name

What would be the template method for accomplishing this?

Presuming the category id is in the URL, you should be able to use the Category Heading tag.

Something like this maybe?

<title>
{exp:weblog:info weblog="{master_weblog_name}"}{blog_title}{/exp:weblog:info} -
{exp:weblog:category_heading}{category_name}{/exp:weblog:category_heading}
</title>

Just had to add the weblog in the category_heading to get it to work, thanks (also moved the dash into the category_heading so it’d only appear within a category).

<title>{exp:weblog:info weblog="{master_weblog_name}"}{blog_title}{/exp:weblog:info}{exp:weblog:category_heading weblog="{master_weblog_name}"} - {category_name}{/exp:weblog:category_heading}</title>

Hey, VodkaFish - how about putting that in the Wiki?

It would make a great addition.
