Naming the Home Page

The default home page document title is "MODx CMS Install Success". I would like to change that to something a little more simple and universally identifiable, and for this example I've decided on the name  "Home".

1. Locate the document in the 'tree' and click on it.

2. Hover over the link for "Edit" and click it.

3. Under the document setting "General" click on the field for "Title".

4. Make the changes as you wish the document title.

5. One thing I originally missed on my first attempt at this, was the "Menu Title" (Used in the navigation items on the right of the page layout). The "Menu title" has a control of it's own and needs to be changed also.

6. Hover on the "Save" link and click it.

7. You'll notice the item in the document tree has been updated.

This is the code used in the html template to display the name in the document.

This is what the code looks like when it's been rendered by a web browser.
