GemRock 7 Posted June 26, 2007 You don't have to use header_tags_edit.php. It can by default use your product name and/or product description to populate the meta tags when you go to product_info pages. Whether it works or not can first be judged by looking at the the meta tags as just mentioned. Without more details of your site/.installation, it is hard to say what may cause the error. Check your instalation is what I can suggest at the moment.

This is the contribution that puts the product name (etc) at the top of the browser page? i.e. this page is called 'OsCommerce Community Forums > Repling in Header Tags for novices' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GemRock 7 Posted July 4, 2007 On every page mine just shows 'PDAs4U - Online PDA & Accessory shop' http://www.pdas4u.co.uk/shop/index.php A further look at the page source and found you seemed to be using a sts template, which you did not mention in your posts. I think that (the sts template) would be the reason why you had difficulties to install the contrib. Your product description did not show in the description meta tag. It showed thr product name instead. wonder if this is what your want?

Yari 0 Posted July 17, 2007 Thanks for answer, there was two links there that pointed to newer version of the STS wich doesn't work. Any help for STS 2.0.1 ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swamyg1 0 Posted July 17, 2007 Hi there, I installed HTC and the STS bundle... and everything was working fine, until I renamed and added some new pages. Now I can't seem to add any header info to any of my new pages, but the header info does seem to be working for the pages for the previously named (but non-existent) files... I also can't seem to modify any of the title information for my about_us, page, but that seems to be the only one! Is there anything I should have done before renaming these files, and/or adding new files? Now I'm totally stuck, can I clear the database and reinstall a few key files to get a fresh HTC? Here's my shop: http://www.perfectlocks.com I find that to be very odd! Any idea why this could be happening? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GemRock 7 Posted July 17, 2007 Hi there, I installed HTC and the STS bundle... This support thread is for Header Tags For Novices ONLY. I can't answer questions for other contribs. Yari: Sorry, as I don't use any version of sts, so I have no idea how to make it work with sts 2. You may try to compare your sts with the newer one that people have managed to make it work with my contrib.

Yari 0 Posted July 17, 2007 Ok i shall do that, it's a bid differens between the old one and new one of STS. Hope I can work it out, if someone else hasn't get it working allready with sts 2.0.1 ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tractormad 0 Posted August 14, 2007 I've just installed this contrib....what a fantastic idea! I had no ends of problem with another header contribution, but this one was a breeze. Hopefully I'll start to reap the rewards with lots of new visitors. Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
psylencer 0 Posted September 13, 2007 I seem to have found a bug in the code somewhere, not really sure where yet, but this may help others in the same situation. Install for HTFN went well, Just when I thought everything was working perfectly, I tried to change the results per page from 20 to say 300. When changing the results the page reloaded to the same page I was on (20 results). Strangely enough I went into admin, Maximum values and change the default "Search results" from 20 to 50 then went back to the header_tages_edit.php and guess what, now Im showing 50 results per page. I'm very very confused. Incidently, I cant change from say page 1 to page 3 either. Same thing, the current page just reloads. I should note however that the URL at the top does change. Hmmm Any ideas anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GemRock 7 Posted September 13, 2007 I seem to have found a bug... I suggest you try to install this contrib on a stock osCommerce and see if the so-called 'bug' still happens. I guess it is more to do with your shop including the server that hosts it, eg, register_globals, php/mysql version etc. Ken commercial support - unProtected channel, not to be confused with the forum with same name - open to everyone who need some professional help: either PM/email me, or go to my website (URL can be found in my profile). over 20 years of computer programming experience.

GemRock 7 Posted September 17, 2007 marekpI just installed the Header Tags for Novices Version 2 and I am heving this problem: Fatal error: Call to a member function call_api() on a non-object in /home/cartridg/public_html/checkout_process.php on line 102 Any ideas how to fix it? Today, 04:54 AM the contrib has nothing to do with checkout_process.php, so I don't know how/why you got that error, unless you accidentally changed something in application_top.php which you shouldn't. so first thing i would suggest you check that file to make sure theres nothing wrong there, or you could just use your backup copy of that file to see if the error goes away, assuming your shop worked before you installed this contrib.
