change display name on Web bar of store?

[Iniquityclothing]

hi folks how can you change the text that appears in the blue bar at the very top of a web page? eg this web page says "Oscommerce community support forums -> etc etc" cos at the mo my store says "E-commerce" and i want saying my actual store name.

 

Also how can i define the meta tags of my web page? is it in Index.php? if not then what direction do i need to be looking on?

Thanks!

Hi, I don't know that this is the correct procedure, but it seems to work just fine for meta tags. I simply added the following code to the very top of the includes/languages/english/index.php. I ran a meta tag analyzer and it worked just fine and store functions properly.

 

<title>this is the text that will show up on top blue bar in browser</title>
<meta content="yourdomain.com" name="Title">
<meta content="your shop name" name="Author">
<meta content="the kind of shop you have" name="Subject">
<meta content="your description of content" name="Description">
<meta content="your keywords" name="Keywords">
<meta content="english" name="Language">
<meta content="© your company name" name="Copyright">
<meta content="your designer name" name="Designer">
<meta content="your publisher name" name="Publisher">
<meta content="Global" name="Distribution">
<meta content="All" name="Robots">

 

Change the text to what you need to in between each " "

Example:

 

From: <meta content="yourdomain.com" name="Title">

To: <meta content="davesbargains.com" name="Title">

 

Leave the "Global" & "Robots" like it is
