Jack_mcs 1,020 Posted January 26, 2012 Hi Jack, I have installed the latest version on a new 2.3.1 store I am developing. I see on the Add New Product Page in admin that there are two new boxes - on my install they have the titles: TEXT_PRODUCTS_LISTING_TEXT and TEXT_PRODUCTS_SUB_TEXT My questions are : 1 what should the titles actually be in the language defines? 2) what are these boxes actually for? as I cant seem to find an explination. Many Thanks In answer to your first question: In admin/includes/languages/english/categories.php, FIND: /*** End Header Tags SEO ***/ ADD ABOVE: define('TEXT_PRODUCTS_LISTING_TEXT', 'Product Listing Text'); define('TEXT_PRODUCTS_SUB_TEXT', 'Product Page Sub Text:'); Support Links: Need Help? See this thread and provide the information requested. Is your version of osC up to date? You'll find the latest osC version (the community-supported responsive version) here.

Mort-lemur 168 Posted January 26, 2012 Thanks Jack, Great update by the way ! I see in a previous post that the Tag Cloud is not for 2.3.1 and it gives me some errors on the module page - but still seems to work - I assume this will be looked at in a future release? Many Thanks Now running on a fully modded, Mobile Friendly 2.3.4 Store with the Excellent MTS installed - See my profile for the mods installed ..... So much thanks for all the help given along the way by forum members. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

benjackson 0 Posted January 26, 2012 i am trying to use Header tags SEO and looks a great bit of kit EXCEPT that it removes the already great title that osCommerce makes for me, which for me comes out as 'my product code+manufacturer+category' which looks great (as I made my data this way, v_products_name_1 from Easy Populate), and with the triple whammy of being in my URL as well as the main header on the page, gives me some good keyword density. is there anyway that SEO header tags can do this for me, without me having to go into every single of my 1000+ products? or can i stop SEO header tags from changing the title and leaving it as osCommerce made it? many thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First, there is more to add to the code than that one line. If you are just adding the one line, it will work but is not technically good. You do need that code if you want to control the pages, that's why the instructions say to add it. That assumes you are using a non-2.3 shop though. Support Links: Need Help?
