I don't know if its a repost as i tried to search but couldn't find it. What i am looking is how can i make something like this:
In this site the name or the title of the site is different on homepage & as you click on any post the title & the name on the header changes to the tags or the post.
Please help me how can i do that what plugin or code changes this guy has done?
Thanks
look in your theme folder - header.php - near the top there should be a <title> tag that does it.
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>

Look further up than that. It should be in the <head> section

You'll be changing this line,
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> » Blog Archive <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
I realize you don't know the code, but, this is how you start to learn it. Read it like English. You can see what's happening in general.
Here's the template tag (the code) used to display your Post title (example XYZ)
<?php single_post_title(); ?>
Maybe try changing in your header.php to something like this:
<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?> <?php if ( is_single() ) { ?> <?php single_post_title(); ?> <?php } ?> <?php wp_title(); ?></title>
Then you will need to mess with it some more after that to get just exactly what you want. Or ask again for more help.
If you want to know what any of those codes / template tags does, search for it in the Codex, for example:

Here's some code that should work
<div id="header">
<h1 class="title">
<?php if ( is_single() ) { ?><a><?php wp_title('',true,''); ?></a><?php } else { ?><a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/"><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></a><?php } ?></h1>
<?php if ( is_single() ) { $description = "<a href=\"".get_bloginfo('home')."\">".get_bloginfo('name')."</a>"; }
else {$description = get_bloginfo('description');}
if (!empty ($description)) { ?>
<p class="desc"><?php echo $description; ?>
<?php } ?>
</div>

For fun I tried my own version of that code posted by jeremyclark13. It works, and it's pretty cool seeing my Post Title as the h1 header in place of my blog title. It's more dynamic up top :->
Thanks for the cool idea

your welcome Dgold.
jeremy i was thinking if instead of my blog title on the home page if i can get the latest blog post title on the home page & downunder the title : description rather then just description. Making the homepage look like this:-
LATEST BLOG POST TITLE
Title : Description (with hyperlink to my home page
Rest the post page would be like:
BLOG POST TITLE
Title : Description (with hyperlink to homepage ofcourse)
What should be the possible code for this.
Thank alot in advance
