Are you using the correct code? Note the %:

<%title%> : The category title.

Are you putting this into your template? If it's not working, try this:

<!-- title should be next -->
<%title%>

That way, even if the script is not reading the tag correctly, the comment will show you that at least the template is being read correctly. It's a place to start...

Unsure

I have tried as you have explained me but it doesn't work. If http://www.gotlandcharter.com/links-en/index.html you see this link in every category that you see the title aloft it changes every time like I must do?

I think I understand now. Just put this where you want the un-linked category list to appear:

<h1><%site_title%>: <%category_clean%></h1>

This will give you the similar list as appears at http://www.gotlandcharter.com/...t_and_Yacht_charter/

Boats, yachts charters links :: Boat and Yacht charter

Do you mean the words that appear at the very top of the browser, the page title?

The easy way is to use the category name, by putting this in the template:


<head>
<title><%site_title%>: <%category_name%></title>

The other way is to use this mod:

That will not work, and I don't know why you would want it listed that way. You are wanting to chnage the page title, right? Like on this page, at the very top it says

Gossamer Forum: Products: Links 2.0: Customization: Reply to post - Microsoft Internet Explorer

That is the page title. The normal way it is done is like so (from a new listing in the resource Section):

X3DO Site Directory: Army Men

The title_linked looks like this:

X3DO : Directory : Army Men

And the url is here:

http://www.x3do.com/Sites/Army_Men/

A search engine will not know or care if there is a new link, or a new title for the page. Actually, you do better to keep the names the same, for stability/longeveity. Here are some places to read about how search engines work:
