custom dashboard page header heading | add auth user name into the heading of a page

im looking to turn this:

    protected ?string $heading = 'Welcome';

    protected ?string $heading = 'Welcome';

into something like this:

    protected ?string $heading = 'Welcome ' . auth()->user();

    protected ?string $heading = 'Welcome ' . auth()->user();

but it doesn't work and haven't found a way to make it use the, currently authenticated user name. base class for Dashboard doesn't have a getHeading method. is it possible?

Solution:

Hi, you have the getHeading() function on Dashboard too :```php class Dashboard extends \Filament\Pages\Dashboard { public function getHeading(): string | Htmlable {...

{
    public function getHeading(): string | Htmlable
    {
        return 'Dashboard of ' . filament()->auth()->user()->name;
    }
}

php 
class Dashboard extends \Filament\Pages\Dashboard
{
    public function getHeading(): string | Htmlable
    {
        return 'Dashboard of ' . filament()->auth()->user()->name;
    }
}
