I see it at the product level, but for Hika menu items, such as a category listing, I wasn't able to find anything specific to Hika, and what is set in Joomla's "Browser Page Title" is apparently overridden.

In the Hikashop categories i see there is a field "Name" and a field "page title". but "page title"seems not to have any effect - maybe it changes the browser page title but not the heading. Hikashop is taking for both - menu and page title always the input of the field "name". So how can i do that?

However, this doesn't appear to work for Hika menus I've tried. How can the browser's page title be set?")* Hi, When you edit a menu item you have a setting for the text displayed by the browser as title of the tab/window called "browser page title" and a setting for the text displayed by HikaShop at the top of the main content of the page called "Page heading": [ monosnap.com/file/zpMjhzRKfKcs2dpndyFoUTVpeJA77e](https://monosnap.com/file/zpMjhzRKfKcs2dpndyFoUTVpeJA77e) Also, under the "products/categories options" tab you ave an option "Use the menu name as title": [ monosnap.com/file/2CbP4zCpTKsQzjydngqDoidNIODlGc](https://monosnap.com/file/2CbP4zCpTKsQzjydngqDoidNIODlGc) So if you have that last option activated, the page heading will come from the "page heading" setting of Joomla. If that last option is deactivated, then the page heading will come from the name of the current category. And the browser page title will come from that "browser page title" if filled in. Otherwise, it will use the page heading/category name selected.
