`<Title>`

Set the page title (the text displayed in the app bar) from within a react-admin component.

Title

Usage

Use <Title> from anywhere in the page to set the page title.

import { Title } from 'react-admin';

const CustomPage = () => (
    <>
        <Title title="My Custom Page" />
        <div>Content</div>
    </>
);

<Title> uses a React Portal to render the title outside of the current component. It works because the default <AppBar> component contains a placeholder for the title called <TitlePortal>.

CRUD page components (<List>, <Edit>, <Create>, <Show>) already use a <Title> component. To set the page title for these components, use the title prop.

import { List } from 'react-admin';

const PostList = () => (
    <List title="All posts">
        ...
    </List>
);

Props

Prop	Required	Type	Default	Description
`title`	Optional	`string\|ReactElement`	-	What to display in the central part of the app bar
`defaultTitle`	Optional	`string`	`''`	What to display in the central part of the app bar when `title` is not set
`preferenceKey`	Optional	`string`	`${pathname}.title`	The key to use in the user preferences to store a custom title

`title`

The title prop can be a string or a React element.

If it’s a string, it will be passed to the translate function, so you can use a title or a message id.

import { Title } from 'react-admin';

const CustomPage = () => (
    <>
        <Title title="my.custom.page.title" />
        <div>Content</div>
    </>
);

If it’s a React element, it will be rendered as is. If the element contains some text, it’s your responsibliity to translate it.

import { Title } from 'react-admin';
import ArticleIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Article';

const ArticlePage = () => (
    <>
        <Title title={
            <>
                <ArticleIcon />
                My Custom Page
            </>
        } />
        <div>My Custom Content</div>
    </>
);

`defaultTitle`

It often happens that the title is empty while the component fetches the data to display. To avoid a flicker, you can pass a default title to the <Title> component.

import { Title, useGetOne } from 'react-admin';
import ArticleIcon from '@mui/icons-material/Article';

const ArticlePage = ({ id }) => {
    const { data, loading } = useGetOne('articles', { id });
    return (
        <>
            <Title
                title={data && <><ArticleIcon />{data.title}</>} 
                defaultTitle={<ArticleIcon />}
            />
            {!loading && <div>{data.body}</div>}
        </>
    );
};

`preferenceKey`

In Configurable mode, users can customize the page title via the inspector. To avoid conflicts, the <Title> component uses a preference key based on the current pathname. For example, the <Title> component in the posts list page will use the posts.title preference key.

If you want to use a custom preference key, pass it to the <Title> component.

import { Title } from 'react-admin';

const CustomPage = () => (
    <>
        <Title title="My Custom Page" preferenceKey="my.custom.page.title" />
        <div>Content</div>
    </>
);

If you want to disable configuring the page title even while in Configurable mode, you can pass preferenceKey=false.

import { Title } from 'react-admin';

const CustomPageWithNonConfigurableTitle = () => (
    <>
        <Title title="My Custom Page" preferenceKey={false} />
        <div>Content</div>
    </>
);
