Guest Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 I'm using your metatag contribution, and it's great! But only 50 characters can be used in the tatle tag for each product. I know I can easily change that, but is there any reason why you did this? I know the title shouldn't be as long as the keywords, etc. but I would like to fit in 15 words or so, which I can't. Just looking for your thoughts, and thanks for the contribution! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jswan Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Hi: I haven't seen that contribution. Can you tell me what it is called, and in which contributions category it is found? I've been wondering how to generate the metatags that I need to optimize my pages for search engines. Thanks, Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajeh Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 I picked 50 as most the time that was sufficient in size. I forget the cut off on titles on the window. But, you can use anything you like. I just did not want to make it huge and waste space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkkqqq Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 I have installed this great contribution. The index.php page and the catagory page works great. It will show the site name and catagory name. But for the product_info page, I don't know how to modify to show the product name. How could I do this? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack_mcs Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 The product name is probably in the string but it is being cut off due to length. The code in includes/header_tags.php has the following for index.php: if (HTTA_DEFAULT_ON=='1') { $the_title= HEAD_TITLE_TAG_ALL . ' ' . HEAD_TITLE_TAG_DEFAULT . " " . $the_category['categories_name'] . $the_manufacturers['manufacturers_name']; but it should be something like: if (HTTA_DEFAULT_ON=='1') { $the_title= $the_category['categories_name'] . $the_manufacturers['manufacturers_name'] . " - " . HEAD_TITLE_TAG_ALL . ' ' . HEAD_TITLE_TAG_DEFAULT; Google only allows a certain number of characters in the title string (60 or 80, I can't recall ATM). If you go over that it is cut off so placing the product description at the end of the string is useless.

"\n"; echo ' <META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT="' . $the_key_words . '">' . "\n"; echo ' <META NAME="Description" Content="' . $the_desc . '">' . "\n"; Change that at the end of header_tags.php and it will alter the output order in your header! Quote: Break it, you have nothing else to do.
