Page / Panel Hide Title not working as expected

I'm experiencing the same issue, and confirm the odd behaviour.

A possible solution is to edit 'panels_page/panels_page.module' and look for the line: -

if (!$display->hide_title) {
drupal_set_title(filter_xss_admin(panels_page_get_title($panel_page, 'page', '')));
}

and add an else clause, making the block: -

if (!$display->hide_title) {
drupal_set_title(filter_xss_admin(panels_page_get_title($panel_page, 'page', '')));
} else {
drupal_set_title('');
}

Perhaps the title was set previously? If so, the logic 'if not hide title' can only ever set or replace a title, it can never remove it.

The solution above seems to make it do what's expected, since the page title is correct, and the panel title is invisible.

Marking as duplicate of #263372: hiding the title causing "Preview" to be displayed instead of nothing. and #268318: Page titles not working for node override pages.

thanks, ksangeelee. That solution worked for me.

This solution does exactly the same thing as gnosis noticed with the space trick: It causes the browser title bar to display " | Sitename".

What you can do, until the fix is in place, is you can use the CSS property display:none (http://www.w3schools.com/css/pr_class_display.asp) to hide it.

EDIT
I forgot I just installed PageTitle module and it took over displaying info in the title bar...
So, the fix works well for me too :)

If you're working on the frontpage, you can do something like:

.front #content-header .title {
        display: none;
}

worked for me on a Zen based theme.

I've got the same problem. I am using Advanced User Profile with Author Pane. I do not need a page title displayed above the user profile panels. However, I do want a title (user name) in the browser window.

Currently, I can only get "| Site Name", not "User Name | Site Name" as desired.

Is there any way to get a title in the browser window but not actually printed on the page? ie. Just take it from a pane?

Drupal does not offer a feature where you can have a browser title without a page title. To achieve this you must do theming in your page preprocess and page.tpl.php

None of this invalidates the original settings on this issue.

Thanks merlin. Figured it out from your reply and a bit of reading here:

1.copy page.tpl.php to you subtheme/templetes
2. rename page.tpl.php to page--front.tpl.php(forexample)
3.hidden codes from line 123 to 127 (drupal7)
4.then ok

Just set your title to when you edit your panel.
