Header Tags SEO

gomino · December 2, 2009

I'm sory but I don't understand the question. If you are asking how to change the title of the advanced search page, you just edit it in page control. If you are talking about changing the search results, that isn't a question for this thread.

Sorry for not explaining myself very well:

I added the header tags seo code to the advanced search results, but configuring it in page control like other pages did not give me as a result what I wanted.

What I want is the word searched in the title, and if it is possible, some of results' names.

Thank you Jack

Hi,

I recently installed Header Tags SEO and it all looks like it working ok except when I now click on a category it no longer shows any of my products, I can still search for the products and they show up fine. I think I must have done something wrong during the install, I have tried to look through it but cannot figure it out. Below is my full index.php file, please help :)

I did not use Header Tags, in advanced_search_results.php, I set $title = $keywords . ' - Advanced search results - Your site name';

Shouldn't this be done by header tags seo?

No, it wouldn't serve any purpose. The search engines would have to do a search in order for it to work and the fingers on the little bots just aren't nimble enough to do that. :)

Jack_mcs · December 3, 2009

I recently installed Header Tags SEO and it all looks like it working ok except when I now click on a category it no longer shows any of my products, I can still search for the products and they show up fine. I think I must have done something wrong during the install, I have tried to look through it but cannot figure it out. Below is my full index.php file, please help :)

For the problem, please read the troubleshooting section. Also, please do not post long sections of code unless asked. Nothing will be done with it and it just causes trobule for everyone else.

ANy ideas how to make Headers SEO work with Security Pro? http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/5752

The ob_start in index.php causes a problem

Hi

Any thoughts on this one? Should the ob_start be in a different place. The 2 contributions seem to cause a minor bug with each other adding the cPath_21 text into the title tag somehow.

Securiry-pro is not adding anything to index.php file as far as I know

Hello Jack,

I,m trying to install your great contr. In my shop (MS2) index and product_info files there are differences I can not figure out what to replace.

The codes in index.php

here://FIND (Around line 78):

<?php echo tep_draw_top();?>

<?php new contentBoxHeading_ProdNew($info_box_contents);?>

<?php echo tep_draw1_top();?>;

here: ///FIND (Around line 247):

?>

<?php echo tep_draw_top();?>

and here: //FIND (Around line 298) - is missing.

In product_info.php

// FIND (around line 33):

<table border="0" class="<?php echo MAIN_TABLE; ?>" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

<tr>

<td class="<?php echo BOX_WIDTH_TD_LEFT; ?>"><table border="0" class="<?php echo BOX_WIDTH_LEFT; ?>" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

//FIND (around line 102):

<?php echo tep_draw_top();?>

<?php echo tep_draw_title_top();?>

<div class="left_part"><?php echo $breadcrumb->trail(' » ')?> » <?php echo $products_name; ?></div><div class="right_part"><?php echo $products_price2; ?></div>

<?php echo tep_draw_title_bottom();?>

<?php echo tep_draw1_top();?>

// FIND (around line 240):

<?php echo tep_draw_bottom();?>

</form></td>

This may be is simple but I,m not a pro.

Thanks in advance!

Haha, I know :)

But, I like to have some searches indexed. For example, some people look for a perfume, but I do not know if they want the man or woman version. This way, I do the search, and I get both. And I index this search in google so people looking for this particular perfume get that page with the results, and of course, with a good title.

You don't have any control over what gets indexed. The search engines find the page and decide where, if at all, it goes in their listings. Since they can't get to the search result page for particular keywords, it isn't possible to do what you want. The correct procedure is to provide links to existing pages about those items and/or create new pages for them.

Hi.

I have installed Header Tags SEO V 3.1.8 but there is an error when customer first visit to my website.

There is an code(OSCSID) added to end of the HTML such as (http://www.xxx.com.au/brother-tn2025-black-laser-toner-p-505?osCsid.html) and causing the page found when customer clicked on the product. However, if the customer refresh the page, the oscsid disapper and the page appeared again.

Please help me to fix this.

Thanks a lot

Jack_mcs · December 4, 2009

Header Tags doesn't control the url's. It might be that you didn't run fill tags and/or didn't reset the cache for your url rewriter.

Does anyone know how to create a Pseudo page for TOPICS?

I know that you create a Pseudo page for Articles this way - you start with article_info.php? then add articles_id=99 so the Pseudo Page looks like this article_info.php?articles_id=99. But what do you use to create the Topic??

I tried article_info.php?topics_id=120, articles.php?tPath=120, articles.php?topic_id=120, articles.php?topics_id=120 - and none of them work.

Can someone please direct me as to how to create a TOPIC Pseudo page?

Thanks,

Thanks,

Instead of guessing, go to a topics page and see what the url is (same for any page you want to add a pseudo entry for). Fot topics, it is articles.php?tPath=X, where X is the actual topic ID number. You have to have articles.php showing in page control or it won't work. Since you didn't mention the failure, I assume that is what it is.

Hi Jack, thanks for this contribution. It seems to be great.

But i have one issue after my installation.

I had a Header Tags Controller contribution.

I've installed Header Tags Seo V.3.1.8 on it.

I get thru installation with not many problems. I had to made few changes in admin/categories.php because of Additional Images contribution.

Everything is working fine now. But when i typing www.mypage.com i have this coming:

Error!

Unable to determine the page link!

But when i'm typing www.mypage.com/index.php or any other page - it's ok then.

Do you have any idea why it happends?

I think it coudl be something wrong with my server configuration because i had similar problem with Ultimate Seo URL 5 contribution - on mypage.com i also had some errors that dissapear on mypage.com/index.php

Any ideas?

Thanks

This isn't due to Header Tags. If it were, it would fail when you went right to the page.

zooyork · December 6, 2009

Hm, but when i comment this lines out from index.php:

/*** Begin Header Tags SEO ***/

//if ( file_exists(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header_tags.php') ) {

// require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header_tags.php');

//} else {

?>

<?php

//}

/*** End Header Tags SEO ***/

mypage.com works fine then.

Jack re:zooyork

We had a problem with his server and USU5, oddly on his server when you access the site as www.mysite.com both $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] and $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] contain just /.

On every other server I have worked on they contain /index.php.

So .. if in the header tags script somewhere it uses basename( $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'] ) or something expecting to get a filename .. it wont.

Hope that helps.

Hi Jack,

Can I just say what a great contribution and really admire the work that has gone into it.

Just need your expertise as I am having trouble getting the Page Control for individual pages to work correctly. I ran the Test and it returned with the result:

Missing Code in File explain

The Header Tags head code for the product_reviews.php file cannot be found.

The Header Tags head code for the product_reviews_info.php file cannot be found.

The Header Tags head code for the product_reviews_write.php file cannot be found.

The Header Tags head code for the specials.php file cannot be found.

That doesn't seem to be a problem as I am just trying to modify the index.php page. I have inserted the necessary Header Tags. It shows up in the Page Control Section. When I try to edit the Title, trying to replace the default "Replace me in Page Control under index.php" and then click Submit Query the page just loads then resets itself. In other words it doesn't do anything, gets rid of the input I typed in and resets it to what it was before. I have tried this on other pages like product_info.php as well and it does the same thing.

I have uploaded all the required files to the correct directories. Also have changed permissions for header_tags.php to 0755. Is there something that I'm missing?

Many thanks.

Le

Header Tags doesn't use that but even if it did, that sort of problem is too specific to code for, in my opinion. That is a server problem, probably the php version his host is using, and the op should complain to them about not having a working version of php.

I have gone through the Install_Admin.txt troubleshooting, still cannot resolve this problem. Any other suggestions?

So you still had the problem in admin when you replaced the categories file? I don't see how that's possible since that is what controls all of the changes there. So, no, in that case, I don't have an answer for you. It would have to be a server problem.
