KissMT Dynamic SEO Meta & Canonical Header Tags


FWR Media

Recommended Posts

Hello again, I just realized that the when you select the manufacturers filter box and it shows products by that manufacturer it is not putting the manufacturer's name in the <title.

 

<title>Products by at Company - Company</title>

 

Noticed it also has "Company" twice which I found in one of the files that I can remove or edit:

 

Line 46: define('META_FROM_MANU_AT_STORE', 'Products by %s at %s');

 

But do you know why the manufacturer's name is not showing?

 

I haven't added the admin extras but do have your SEO Pro installed.

 

Thank You

<meta name="keywords" content="great,product,range,full,wiggets">

I understand thank you I will read them, this never did it before not sure why it is doing it now. Maybe I was using one of your older versions?

 

Any suggestions on the By Manufacturer not working?

 

I see text in the title but don't know how to change it

You'll see text in the title like "Products by Some Manufacturer at My Shop"

These are set in the language files .. catalog/includes/languages/[my language]/kissmt.php

 

I see this but it is not putting the manufacturers name in there, what do I need to do to it?

 

Thank You

I am sorry if I appear to be naive here but I just need to get this fixed asap, we just launched a huge integration with our distributors last week and google is caching our site really heavily.

Ok so I deleted my KISS cache directory which was really large btw, like I was saying we launched a big project this week. I turned on performance checking and this is what came out:

 

KissMT Dynamic Seo Meta Tags - Performance

Query Count: 1

Query load time 0.0006 seconds

Cache File Size: Not loaded

Queries:

SELECT pd.products_name, m.manufacturers_name FROM manufacturers m LEFT JOIN products p ON p.manufacturers_id = m.manufacturers_id AND p.products_status = 1 LEFT JOIN products_description pd ON pd.products_id = p.products_id AND pd.language_id = 1 WHERE m.manufacturers_id = 8 LIMIT 0

 

then when I refresh the manufacturers page it shows this:

 

KissMT Dynamic Seo Meta Tags - Performance

Query Count: 0

Cache load time 0.0001 seconds

Cache File Size: 0.13 kb

Queries:

 

So see in the query above it gets the manufacturers name and then I assume puts it into the cache under:

 

kissmt_1_index_manufacturers_id_8.cache

 

But I am unable to open this file to find out what is in it. I know this is called KISS and the instructions are pretty simple I am just at a loss on why this isn't working. Is it b/c my store is very large now?

 

I did not see anything in the directions on how to change your homepage keywords and description, did I miss that somewhere too?

 

Thanks again

further information, it looks like it has the correct Manufacturer name it is just not being used in the language file.

 

I would also like to note that we moved to a dedicated server, could server permissions be an issue?

   [keywords] => products,MY,SITE
   [description] => Products by at MYSITE.
   [cachefile_size] => 0.13 kb
   [stopwords] => Array

 

I may have been using your 2 Minute Try Out for several months and didn't notice it, and when I redid the contrib I installed the full version. I was using cDynamic Meta Tags

 

<?php 
# cDynamic Meta Tags
/*<title><?php echo TITLE; ?>*/
require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'meta_tags.php');
#
?>

 

UPDATE: yes I just replaced the KISS header code in the index.php and it is now showing the manufacturers name in the title, with keywords and descriptions.

 

Not a fix however I would really like to use KISS if possible.

on product_info.php the KISS is working as it should:

Hello,

 

Cannot remove product_model from title tag or description

 

great contribution but i seem to have hit a very small problem that has me beat. I cannot remove the product_model from the title or the description even after removing it from product_info.php. This removes it from the page but it is still being generated in the title tag and description. I have flushed the cache on KissMT Dynamic SEO, oscommerce admin and from the browser but it will not go away. It seems as though it have been recorded somewhere and will not move. Can the title tag be edited to remove products_model? I am using it with Seo Urls 5 and wondered if there was someway that i could also modify the breadcrumb trail to show product name instead of product model

 

Thanks

I have fixed that by commenting out the products_model in products_info.php in the Kiss folder.

 

Is there any way i can reverse the breadcrumb trail so it reads the same and in the breadcrumb trail in the bar with site name first?

 

Thanks

Sorry for the typo it should be as it reads in the breadcrumb trail so it is included in the <title> tag with the site name first then category and then product name.

In application_top change this bit

// add the products model to the breadcrumb trail
to
// add the products name to the breadcrumb trail
and the bit below
 if (isset($_GET['products_id'])) {
   $name_query = tep_db_query("select products_name from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " where products_id = '" . (int)$_GET['products_id'] . "' AND language_id=" . (int)$languages_id . "");
   if (tep_db_num_rows($name_query)) {
     $name = tep_db_fetch_array($name_query);
     $breadcrumb->add($name['products_name'], tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'cPath=' . $cPath . '&products_id=' . $_GET['products_id']));
   }
 }

Thanks for the help the code throws in a lot of extra links and takes out the structure of site name, category, product description, which i currently have in my breadcrumb trail. This is what i want to duplicate in the product title instead of the other way around using Kissmt header tags. Here is the code

 

// add the products model to the breadcrumb trail

if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'])) {

$model_query = tep_db_query("select products_model from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " where products_id = '" . (int)$HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id'] . "'");

if (tep_db_num_rows($model_query)) {

$model = tep_db_fetch_array($model_query);

// $breadcrumb->add($model['products_model'], tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_INFO, 'cPath=' . $cPath . '&products_id=' . $HTTP_GET_VARS['products_id']));

}

}

 

Thanks

After instaling KissMT Dynamic SEO Meta & Canonical Header Tags

 

In categories meta tags I have HEADER:

 

"Categories Name - Site Name - Product 1 in categorie - Products 2 in categorie ..."

 

and I need the line like:

 

"Categories Name - Site Name"

 

(without products)

 

I edited init.php and set define( 'KISSMT_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_LIMIT', 0 ) (default was 30). After this I got what I need, the header line became:

 

"Categories Name - Site Name"

 

but the problem is that after this change "KissMT Dynamic SEO Meta & Canonical Header Tags" doesn't show manufacturer's name when sorting by Manufacturer

(when 'KISSMT_CATEGORIES_PRODUCTS_LIMIT' is 30 it does).

 

 

What can I do to solve this problem ?

Looks like your host is running a ridiculously old version of PHP, this requires only PHP5.2+ ( the 2006 release of PHP ).

Thanks, you right - Just upgraded PHP version to 5.2 and created ini fil for my admin directory and all seems to be fine.

 

Just an observation and a question - I dont see anything re. this add-on in admin? Should their be something?

Also, how do I test the effectiveness of this add-on. I would not know at this stage if it is working or not?

if you installed it correctly there will be a KissMT listing in admin configuration.

 

To see it working products/categories etc should show meaningfull info at the very top of the browser, also if you view the source there should be meta tags, canonical elements etc.

There is nothing in admin/config.

My website is www.nontando.com - Top of browser? do you mean the url description?

 

I wonder if, because I updated the php version after I copied the files to my server, could that have resulted in the admin not being updated?

 

Thanks, Gary

Gary this is a support thread for the contribution I don't have the time to explain basic web stuff to you.

 

Perhaps search in Google or ask some questions in the general forum.

 

Your products and categories seem to be producing some output but it doesn't look like KissMT output.

Robert, I apologize. I seemed to have (I had another meta tags contr in index.php)updated index.php and output seems to be working now. Only on my home page www.nontando.com, my source is

<title>My Great Product Range - Full Range of Wiggets - Buy from Nontando</title>

<meta name="description" content="My Great Product Range, Full Range of Wiggets.">

<meta name="keywords" content="great,product,range,full,wiggets">

<link rel="canonical" href="http://www.nontando.com/">

 

Not sure where this is coming from? Nothing is appearing in admin for whatever reason but at least the meta tags on my product/category pages are looking good.

 

Thanks again and sorry, Gary

Okay just found the answer for the above. Just need to edit...

includes/languages/<my language>/kissmt.php

 

 

So it just trying to figure out why nothing is in admin (I think that is all that is not working).

 

Thanks again and sorry, Gary
