cczernia Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 How do you set page titles to anything other than the default? Not good for search engines. I do beleive there is a contribution out for this. Here is the quick one I use. It has been a long day and I'm not sure if I posted this correctly so make sure you back up first (this should go without saying). In product_info.php try putting the code below before the html: <!-- begin dynamic meta tags query--> <?php $the_product_info_query = tep_db_query("select pd.language_id, p.products_id, pd.products_name, pd.products_description, p.products_model, p.products_quantity, p.products_image, pd.products_url, p.products_price, p.products_tax_class_id, p.products_date_added, p.products_date_available, p.manufacturers_id from " .

Jack_mcs Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 How do you set page titles to anything other than the default? Not good for search engines.The main reason to have unique titled in a site is for the search engines. So, assuming that is important to you (and it should be), you should avoid short-cuts and install Header Tags. It is optimized for the SE's and will give you the best results, in my opinion.
