Accessing Parent Category "variable" in Page Title

Re: Accessing Parent Category "variable" in Page Title

The parent category is not available naively currently (it will be accessible in Version 9 coming this fall). Right now if you need to get it you will need a 3rd party module like toolkit

The function you want is called childof

<mvt:item name="toolkit" param="childof|parentfound|g.Category_Code" />
<mvt:if expr="g.parentfound">
&mvta:childof:code; 
&mvt:childof:name;
</mvt:if>

I have a question about codes for category and parent category.

We are editing some SEO on our client's Miva Merchant site and need to access the parent category name of the category. We are editing the Category Page Template and I've tried everything but cannot seem to get it.

Currently the code is:

<title>&mvt:category:name; - &mvt:store:name;</title>

This is what we are looking for: category1 > category 2 - Company Name (where category 1 is the parent for category 2).

This is a nested category and the category page in question is 4 categories deep. How do I access the parent category for the current category?

I found some code which shows nothing at all - I was hopeful but nothing:

&mvte:parent_category:name;

Thanks.
