What is the variable for forum name

[doctorbrains]

What is the PHP variable in vBulletin 3.5 that holds the forum name?

I need to generate different text depending on the forum I am in.

I am new to PHP, so I would appreciate a code tip using the switch statement or if/ else.

I'd like to generate a different line depending on the forum name.

Here is the line that I need to generate depending on forum name:

xyz ="4324";

So, when I write the PHP code, I will need to escape " and ;

Please help me with an example. Thanks in advance.

$vbulletin->options['bbtitle'] in files with global.php included
$vboptions['bbtitle'] for templates.

Neither suggestion above works for me, however I figured it out from looking at the code, but need confirmation that I am doing the correct thing.

Here is what I am doing:
$forumTitle = $vbulletin->forumcache["$forumID"]['title'];

This seems to work OK for me, but I want to ensure there is no surprise under some conditions.

Please let me know if OK to use the above for the forum title.

You asked for the title of the forum ie the entire forums area of the site which is what we thought.

You mean you actually want the titile of a category or forum for posts and threads?

Sorry I did not make myself clear. Here is an example of what I meant by forum name:

vBulletin 2 'How Do I'

is the forum name/ topic for this forum.

What I need to do is capture that string in a variable. Did I do it correctly?

I think this is what I'm after too - If I want the equivalent of the 'f' variable (i.e. the number of the forum) to use when people are looking in threads within a forum how do I call this in my PHP script?

many thanks, p.
