Hi, i recently install Header_Tags_Controller v2.55 (by Steve(aka 241))

 

and i have Ultimate SEO URL v2.2d installed...

 

everything looks ok, and run perfect, the only problem is, im trying to analyze the page using

 

http://www.searchengineworld.com/cgi-bin/kwda.cgi

 

to analyze my page title, description and keywords, but none of them detected

 

 

what can posibly be wrong?

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

one more problem is that, my page title start with the - (dash) my tile

how do i get rid of it? just for the index? or add a title in front of it?

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

another problem is that, when you click on the product, it grabs the product name, but it doesn't have the - so the product name looks like one word with the title itself...

 

and example is

lets say product name B, and the title of the product_info is "product A, C, D, E,"

 

it looks like B A,C,D,E

 

how to seperate B with - or , in front of A?

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

And my only concern is, my site seem not to compatible with spider or search engine... can any one find out why?

 

thank you!

Hi, I've checked your site, yes you are right there is some thing wrong, first of all please edit your title page, the dash must be coming from the title you entered into the tag page.. you can change this title page on includes/languages/english.php , I've added meta tags into my index.php page and it works fine, I would suggest do the same rather than using this sophgiscated contribution tag extras

regards

Eee

The site appears to be setup correctly. You did the right thing by installing Header Tags. To use just straight meta tags will do very little goog. As for your problems:

 

- The tool you are using is probably failing due to something on the page, maybe the dash in the title.

 

- The most probable reason the page title is starting with a dash is that the title for the index page is empty and it is picking up the dash from the default title. Take a look in admin->Header Tags->Text Control and make sure you have text for the title for the index section.

 

- The title for products is set in the catalog section. Take a look there and see what the title actually is.

 

- I'm not sure what you mean by it not being compatible. It looked fine when I looked at it althoiugh the site is not availalbe now so I can't take a closer look. Be sure you have the Prevent Spiders option set to true in admin->configuration->Sessions.

i do have the title for every page...

which was Fortec, and so on...

 

i think what i did was, becuase the way this template cut off all part of your instruction for the catalog/index.php

 

it not exactly like how you describe in your manual, so i skiped the part

 

<td><heading title></td>

<htd

i guess that's where it grab the title to front of the - ? right?

 

Around line 78:

  Find

<td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>
<td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $category['categories_image'], $category['categories_name'], HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>
  </tr>

  and replace it with 

	   <td><h1><?php echo $category['categories_htc_title_tag']; ?></h1></td>
	   <td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $category['categories_image'], $category['categories_name'], HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>
	  </tr>
	   <?php if (tep_not_null($category['categories_htc_description'])) { ?> 
	  <tr>
	   <td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>
	  </tr>

another problem i'm seeing is if you clear all the ache from internet option, clear cookie as first time visit the site, it show the index.php? with the OSCsid

 

http://www.mydomain.com/index.php?osCsid=9209389f4da454cd5f02e202664f12c8

 

and somtime it doesn't have index.php but just ? OSCsid

 

http://www.mydomain.com/?osCsid=9209389f4da454cd5f02e202664f12c8

 

would this be a problem? if not, then should be just plain with out ?osCsid=9209389f4da454cd5f02e202664f12c8 ???

i don't use Heading Title on my index.php page...
Then you are missing part of the benefit fo the contribution. The index page has three sections to it. By hard-coding the title and meta tags, you are hurting your sites chances at a better listing position.

i did turn TRUE prevent spider....

it still doesn't work

How do you know this? When did you turn it on? It can takes weeks, or even months, before you see a difference in the listings.

yeah, just turned it on recently, and i read some other contribution said to turn those option on, with force cookie. well i bought this template, and not showing the <heading title> anyway, how can this be use without <heading title>?

I don't suggest using Force Cookie. Many people do not like cookies and will not use a site that forces them to. As for using Header Tags without the code in your index file, you can't, at least not for that file.
