Cannot overwrite a global <title> metadata for not-found page. I tried to paste <title> inside page itself but in this case it just puts both global title and the one is set in not-found page. export const metadata and export const generateMetadata doesn't work as well

@sudden grove server

#

but can be client, doesnt matter for me

sudden grove
#

export const metadata should work then

#

but it didn't change the title for you?

tacit bane
#

yes, it just still keeps the one set in global metadata for layout.tsx

#

I tried both

export const metadata = {
title: '404 not found page',
};

export const metadata = {
title: { absolute: '404 not found page' },
};

yup

sudden grove
tacit bane
#

exactly

#

and here is metadata for app/layout.tsx

title: {
default: title,
template: '%s | My Site name',
},

sudden grove
#

then it should work, have you tried remove .next folder and restart the server?

tacit bane
#

I tried everything, maybe the problem in the version of next js i'm using (13.4.19). The metadata works for all pages I have except this one, I found a thread on github with the same problem but their solution doesn't work for me

sudden grove
#

let me try it on 13.4.19 real quick

#

it works for me on 13.4.19

tacit bane
#

did you set a global metadata for title as well?

sudden grove
#

yes

# 
export const metadata: Metadata = {
  title: {
    default: "Create Next App",
    template: "%s | My Site name",
  },
  description: "Generated by create next app",
};
#

and

export const metadata: Metadata = {
  title: "404",
};

hmmm, could you also try to hit error page through notFound() from existing page?

sudden grove
#

the title doesn't set if hit notFound()

#

could you try access some random url which is not exist?

#

btw look like you need to upgrade to get it fix

tacit bane
#

Actually it doesn't work even with a random page for me, it just keeps title which was set in title.default

#

upgrade to which version?

sudden grove
#

is there a reason you using old version instead of latest one?

tacit bane
#

I think I found a way to fix it, I just added metadata to [...not-found]/page.tsx and it works

sudden grove
#

lol

tacit bane
#

maybe not a best solution but at least it works haha

#

but thank you!

sudden grove
#

np

tacit bane
#

hell, it still doesn't work by hitting notFound(), don't you know in which version it was fixed?
