Hi

 

I have just installed Header Tags. I have changed the description in the index.php file. Will my description under my company name in the Google search now change from:

 

Children's Educational Toys

Activity Mats · Baby Care-> (21). Branded Toys-> (10). Children's DVDs · Clocks & Watches · Dressing Up · Educational Toys-> (24) ...

 

to

 

Children's Educational Toys

(whatever is in the description in my index.php)

 

Thanks,

Andrew

Hello Andrew

 

Your Index.php file is actually used to generate multiple pages if you set your index.php title to "Children's Educational Toys" that is what should be displayed the IE, or FireFox tab. If it is not something is wrong.

Since this file would also be used if a customer clicks the Baby Care category you'll need to set a specific Title of this page.

 

Your descriptions work the same way. The Homepage uses the Index.php, but all your categories need to be updated since the index page is used to generate them.

 

Hope this helps,

Don

Thanks for explaining that Don.

 

I have noticed that my categories do come up in the tab in IE and FireFox. Unfortunately, just the title of the website comes up when I click on the actual product page. Shouldn't it come up with the product page title? Any ideas why this is happening?

Good Job!

 

The products use a different page to generate their Title, Description, Keywords. (I believe it is)products_info.php

 

 

You can go to admin>configuration>seo urls>

There you'll see an option to Enable or Disable "Use Header Tags as name?"

enabling this should make your products name be the title

 

The problem I have found this is you want the best results in the search engine as possible.

So your product is named "Baby Potty Time"

But you want your page to read, Book, -Baby Potty Time, Mendison Publishing

 

To do this you can manually edit each product in the admin section, or use the add-on easy populate to generate a specific Title, Description and keyword set for each product.

 

Hope this helps.

Can't find any "Use Header Tags as name" option in my SEO Url, just the following:

 

Value Action

Set the number of days to store the cache. 7

Remove all non-alphanumeric characters? true

Enter special character conversions. (Better to use the file bas

Choose URL Rewrite Type rewrite

Output W3C valid URLs? true

Enable SEO URLs 5? true

Add cPath to product URLs? false

Add category parent to beginning of URLs? true

Filter Short Words 1

Turn debug reporting on true/false. false

Reset SEO URLs Cache

Select caching system. FileSystem

 

I will complete all the fields in the product and category header tags, although it does say for the titles that leaving them blank will use product title and description as default.

 

Thanks

The header tags option in Ultimate SEO is only available in the V2.2d version of Ultimate SEO.

 

I am having this problem in the Header Tags contribution, not the Ultimate SEO contribution. Any suggestions please?
