[Users] wms_title not used

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Can you show us some code or more details on what you use?

Are you using a WMSCapabilitiesStore? Since it should use the title and fallback to the name:

                    values.layer = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
                        layer.title || layer.name, url, params, options
                    );

Best regards,
Bart
