It appears the Products > Product Description > Short Description field is used in the browser title bar
However changing this field later on does not change the name in the title bar (after creating the product)
For example:
http://www.nistune.com/test/index.php/nistune-shop/nistune-boards/type-2-board-1234-detail (http://www.nistune.com/test/index.php/nistune-shop/nistune-boards/type-2-board-1234-detail)
Shows 'Nistune Type 2 board' but if I change this so something else in the Short Description, the title bar stays the same
This is a problem since when making one product and cloning to make other products, I cannot update the title bar description to the new product name. Is there a way to update the title bar description otherwise? Thanks
Hello
Please start here:

When and where is the short description used in the browser ? I can not see any title bar with this text ?

Sorry about that
Joomla! Version 3.6.0
VirtueMart 3.0.16
Using TemplateCreatorCK to generate my template
Try this one for example:
http://www.nistune.com/test/index.php/nistune-shop/nistune-boards/type-4-board-1236-detail
View the source in firebug and we see that the page is references items from previous pages that I cloned
<meta content="Nistune Type 2 board" name="keywords">
<meta content="Type 2 board" name="title">
<meta content="Type 2 board Nistune Boards Nistune Type 2 board" name="description">
<meta content="Joomla! - Open Source Content Management" name="generator">
<title>Nistune Type 1 board</title>
Here my 'title' shows Type 1 and the meta content is for Type 2...
None of those items can be changed from the Products > Product Information, Product Description etc
Also tried with default (Prostar) template, but still same issue with Title not being updated correctly
Hello
As I understand VM takes the title from the Product name and then from the meta-description on the description tab in back end.
Have You added text in the Meta information fields under Product description in Product editing ?

Thanks! Got it sorted... I had not scrolled far enough on that page to see the Meta data at the end of it
Good to know :)
