I've fixed the duplicate Meta-description and duplicate Meta-keywords issue in the includes\meta-tags.php and uploaded this fix to the contribution section here: cDynamic Meta Tags v1.5.1.

I've also changed the includes/function/meta.php and set the meta_create_title to 99 instead of 77, wich was to short in most cases.

Changed also is the includes/meta_tags.php where the Meta-description on the index.php will show both Store-description and Store-index-description.
If you do not like that then please change line 241 to 243 in the includes/meta_tags.php so it will show:

//tep_not_null(HEAD_DESC_TAG_ALL) && $default==true
//  ? $desc.=' - '.STORE_METDEX
//  : NULL;

Hope you find use in my changes

I installed "cDynamic_Meta_Tags v1.6" and every thing was working fine. But when I installed another contribution "Ultimate Seo Urls (19 Jul 2008)" My store description has stopped displaying on all the pages including index page. I have rchecked every thing but I am unable to find the solution. Will anybody help me ??????????????????????????????????

I am using "cDynamic_Meta_Tags v1.6" with "Ultimate Seo Urls (19 Jul 2008)" with no problems, I prefer it to 1.5.

You just need to change.

<?php
# cDynamic Meta Tags
/*<title><?php echo TITLE; ?>*/
require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'meta_tags.php');
#
?>

To this.

<?php
ob_start();
# cDynamic Meta Tags
/*<title><?php echo TITLE; ?>*/
require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'meta_tags.php');
$preventDuplicates->checkTarget(ob_get_clean());
echo $preventDuplicates->finalMeta . "\n";
?>

I hope this helps.

Been a while since I looked at this but I (think I) remember that this is taken from the STORE_NAME define in admin.

It also has caching options .. have you cleared the cache after you changed STORE_NAME?

Now the meta tags only says my url in the index.php page e.g. http://tbourke-solutions.com/store. instead of my shop name.

I only want to have dynamic meta tags, not dynamic titles or descriptions (already covered by another contribution/custom made).

Is this possible? Thanks a lot.

btw, why can´t I edit my own posting? Damn.

V1.5.2 Jammerious (13 Apr 2009)
--------------------------------------------------------
- Removed duplicated entries which still showed up when looking at the manufacturers page
- Fixed the code, so that you can leave the "Store Description" and "Store Index Description" empty in My Store admin settings, ie. if you don't want to use them, they won't display empty lines
- Rearranged some of the code, cleaned up, added some alignments
- Removed all static "bin" and "van" and similar occurences from the script and put them into the language file
- Moved the settings from the language file to the script file
- included "fix for v1.5.1" by "stevenverver"

Let me know if there are any problems.

Hello, I am currently using cdynamic meta tags v1.4. I installed it in 2007 and it seems to be working as it was intended. I am in the process of getting my site listed in DMOZ. I read that to prevent google from using the DMOZ site description in the google search results I had to add this meta tag.

<meta name="robots" content="NOODP">

My question is, how do I add this line of code while keeping the current contribution in working order.

I want to make sure google keeps my current site description the same.

Thanks

[s1lverf0x]

Hi,
I have STS installed & have installed cDynamic Meta Tags 1.5.3 - it all seems to be working fine apart from in my main page.

In index.php - the title tag is showing the text from the first line of my Store Index Description.

In admin, I've got the following set up:

Store Description: The Most Comprehensive Festival Survival Kit on the Net!

Store Index Description: £19.99 - 29 practical Travel Size Essentials in a reusable drawstring rucksack or Build Your Own from our travel size product range.

When I view source, it shows:

<head>
<title>4kits.co.uk - £19.99 - 29 practical Travel Size Essentials in a reusable drawstring rucksack or</title>

<META NAME="Description" Content="4kits.co.uk £19.99 - 29 practical Travel Size Essentials in a reusable drawstring rucksack or Build Your Own from our travel size product range. - The Most Comprehensive Festival Survival Kit on the Net!">

The title tag is showing the first part of the description & the description is showing the dsecription again & then the title is attached onto the end of that.

Please help - I'm pulling my hair out

Thanks
Jason
