[Contribution] Header Tags Controller for Admin MS 2.2


Farrukh

Recommended Posts

I've been having a problem with Header Tags Controller 2.5.3 and 2.5.4.

 

When a product is edited, specifically changed to out of stock, the product looses (changed to null) its product_name. I had to go into the database to re-add it.

 

 

I've checked all my HTC edits, and can't find anything incorrect. I paid special attention to the admin/categories.php code edits, but everything is what the HTC instructions say they should be.

 

Thanks for any advice!

>_< After comparing more closely my admin/categories.php to the the stock HTC version, I found a misplaced edit.

Hi

 

I wondered if anyone could shed any light on this problem? I have installed the Header Tag Contribute , all was working fine until I pointed to fill_tags.php . which updated all the category headings and page titles however when I click on an individual product the following error comes up:

 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: clean_html_comments() inwww\includes\header_tags.php on line 206

 

This appears when I click on the product itself. Does anyone know why? Would be really grateful on how to resolve this! Thanks in advance :-"

Be sure you have a file named clean_html_comments.php in the includes/functions directory. It sounds like you may have forgotten to copy it.

you need to download HeaderTags_V_2 as well as header_tags_controller-2.5.4 in there you will find the Database_Files hope this helps

Hi Jack

 

thanks for the prompt reply. Unfortunately I checked and I have put the file in there. Any other ideas would be much appreciated as this problem came right at the end of building the site.

I did find this bit of code on the top of clean_html_comments.php

 

// BE CAREFUL NOT to use this function where it will effect currencies.php or the listings for product name

// This is used for cosmetic purposes for what the visitor sees and not for what the php code sees. The php code needs to see the HTML comment tags.

//

// Removes the <!--//* and *//--> from Product Names

 

Could this have something to do with it? :blush:

All versions that I realease are full versions. The database is located in the directory named database_files. The last one I released was 2.5.4.

Not in most shops. You may have something installed that will affect it though.

Hi,

 

I installed HTC 2.5.4 and it works great for me. I can see product name on each product page. Now I want to change it a little bit to display category, product name and product description in the page title. What should I do?

 

Thanks!

Hi all,

 

I installed the Header tags controller a while back and I've noticed that when I add a new product in the admin section I'm presented with duplicate input fields for Product name, desc, header title, desc, and keywords, and product URL.

 

I've spent hours trying to find the problem with no luck. I've searched the forum here but also no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

PLEASE HELP

You would need to edit the code in includes/header_tags.php. It is not recommended to do that since all of the SE's limit the length of the title they will accept so yours will be truncated at various points. Better to have it the same for all of the SE's.

just a quick question....

i have a working V2.5.4.....the product meta tags it generates are not separated by commas..... do they have to be or not for search engines to pick them up as different words

The code just dislays the entered text as is. The keywords should be separated by commas so you should enter those when you create the keywords listing.

Most likely the code added to admin/categories.php was duplicated. Try using the categories.php file from the archive just to see if the problem goes away. If it does, then you will need to recheck you changes.

Well, I've gone through the file as carefully as I could and I could not find any indication of duplicate code. Even after comparing it with the old file. I then uploaded the old file and low and behold the problem was still there. That suggests that the HTC had nothing to do with the problem but anyother help would be appreciated. If anyone's looking for a challenge...

HA!

 

Just for the sake of documenting this, the problem had nothing to do with HTC, I had somehow activated 2 default languages, both were somehow the default. I had to delete one of them in PHP MyAdmin. Problem solved, thanks for the response

Got no luck to receive any replies.... I thought Jack has added sth in the contribution so that it supports category on page title, just not sure how to use it.... Jack, any clues?

 

Thanks!!!

GREAT CONTRIB !!!

 

my question can be seen/reproduced on my development site

 

contrib installed and set the defaults to

 

def titel

def descr

def keyw

 

1.) all works nicely apart that in admin panel I can change everything but the default tags I had to change them inthe files while all other functions work propperly. not really a problem ...

 

2.) when you look e.g. index newproducts and any product you can see that the space between titel and def titel is ok in first 2 but in all product ther is missing a space to divide it from def titel.

 

a- where can I change this?

b- is it normal that if titel exists def titel is always displayed afterwards?

 

 

thy for support
