[Contribution] Header Tags Controller for Admin MS 2.2

Jack_mcs · February 4, 2007

Thanks Jack, any idea where I might add that section to, roughly the same line number or else where? Would it help if I posted my codes?

Thanks!

It has to be added around the same area. In some templates it can be difficult to do due to the design of the page.

Hi Jack,

I just updated from 2.5.6 to 2.6.2

All went smoothly and everything seems to work as intended. Only one issue.

The error messages at the top of header_tags_controller.php were appearing despite the permissions being set properly. Files were written as intended even though the error messages were there. I opened up the file to have a look and saw that the permissions of the two files are being determined "correct" if they match the permissions set on the images folder. Mine didn't! I just uploaded the site to a new server and the permissions for the image folder was auto-set to 755.

Is there another way to test for permission value?

Thanks for continuing to work on this contrib.

Best,

Sheri

If the permissions on the images dorectory are 755, then those on the Header Tags files should be set to that too.

HI all

i've just installed 2.6.2. it works very good. but i want, that the product description (<meta name="Description") is the description of the product.

for example:

http://www.kiffen.ch/js200xv-p-30200.html

header-tags generate the following:

<title>JS-200XV Kiffen.ch</title>
<meta name="Description" content="JS-200XV" />

<meta name="Keywords" content="JS-200XV" />

but it should be:

<title>JS-200XV Kiffen.ch</title>
<meta name="Description" content=" *

bis 200 g

*

0.01g genau

*

Tare und Null-Funktion

*

Batterien dazu

*

Auto auschalten

*

Grosse rotes LCD Hintergrundlicht

Das absolute Profigerät" />

<meta name="Keywords" content="JS-200XV" />

is this possible with header-tags 2.6.2?

and would it be like this better for seo?

It is an option in admin->Header Tags->Fill Tags. You can include the full description or just part of it. Whether it is better depends on your product and the description. If the description doesn't mention the product though, it is not the right move.

I've gone through and made the changes but the one for Line 78 and Line 298 aren't there, where would I place it in this code:

If I am understanding you correctly, you are saying that when you view a product page, you want a box (or text) in one of the columns that has a link to the write reviews page? If that is so, you would need to create that link. The kind of link used in Header Tags won't work. You can still build it using the same code as in the box for Header Tags but the link part would be differrent.

Jack

Hi Jack

Can I do this below your piece of code in /product_info.php

				<tr>
			  <td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>
			</tr>
			<tr>
			 <td class="smallText" align="center"><?php echo TEXT_WRITE; ?> 
			 <?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_WRITE, 'products_id=' . $product_info['products_id'], 'NONSSL') . '"; ?></a></td>
			</tr>

& in includes/languages/english/product_info.php

define('TEXT_WRITE', 'Write a review for: ');

I'm guessing that I have taken out the right bits . , ' " spaces etc :huh: & will take me to the appropriate write a review page for this product. As I am "borrowing " :D your code I hope it makes sense!

Thanks hugely. Sorry for the lateral thinking here.

Hi Jack

OK thanks for the push! :lol:

I DID get an error, worked through several & then ended up with it ok except no link? :blink: <a href> etc was there. Then I thought maybe your whole code was not header tags specific, so I copied it ALL & amended it to read FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_WRITE & TEXT_WRITE instead of INFO & it WORKS!! :D

It apears OK on the site...please say it is.

				</tr>
			 <tr>
			  <td><?php echo tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '100%', '10'); ?></td>
			</tr>
			<tr>
			 <td class="smallText" align="center"><?php echo TEXT_WRITE; ?>  
			 <?php echo '<a title="' . $tags_array['title'] . '" href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_WRITE, 'products_id=' . $product_info['products_id'], 'NONSSL') . '"/# ' . $tags_array['title'] . '">' . $tags_array['title']; ?></a></td>

Thanks. :thumbsup:

Jack_mcs · February 5, 2007

Good job. :) I'm not sure you need the achor name in the link though since the review page only has one item. You could try this

				<td class="smallText" align="center"><?php echo TEXT_WRITE; ?>  
			 <?php echo '<a title="' . $tags_array['title'] . '" href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_WRITE, 'products_id=' . $product_info['products_id'], 'NONSSL') . '">' . $tags_array['title']; ?></a></td>

Hey Jack....Kudo's on such a great mod. I am sure it is going to help alot. I do have one request though.. and a couple of questions...... could you please look at this product for me and verify that I am doing this correctly. I do not mind putting the time and effort into this but would hate to think that I am doing it wrong.

You can check it out here

my product

When I view source I see the keywords listed twice and I am not sure this is correct. I have it setup as follows:

product title tag:

bird toys - parrot toy - birds toys - Little Wing Creations

product description tag:

Astro Power Chomp - Designed for the bigger beaked birds that need and love to chew "Astro Power Chomp" will provide hours and hours of chewing pleasure. It's a great parrot toy.

Made of 100% safe (like all of our bird toys) human consumption food dyed wooden chunky pieces and large birch hardwood wheels all strung together with colorful dyed sisal.

This Chew Toy has over 15 feet of dyed sisal, each piece has been triple knotted at the bottom of the toy and left "fringy” to add another spark your bird’s interest.

I know your bird will love them just as much as mine do! It is a great addition to your birds toys!

Measures Approximately 12 1/2 inches by 5 inches

product keyword tag:

bird toys, parrot toy, birds toys

I simply added a small phrase including the keywords to the product description tag ( which I highlighted in blue) but this is not added in my product description on the product info page. Is that correct?

Also I added my Little Wing Creations name to the tags as that is my sites url and another person's product is coming up first in the search engines. Do you think this move will help overtake the other persons product? Do you think it is a good move or bad move?

I noticed in ADMIN - text control that my all prods is red. Is that because I do not have an all products page or am I missing something very vital here? Can you tell me which php page this refers to?

One more ? for you and I promise not to ask any more.

My storefront is not on my root directory...I am using another index for my home page as I have two entities...one a business and one a hobby. Would you recommend that I use more than the three keywords to drive in the traffic? Three for the toy biz and three for the aviary...or what would you suggest?

I appreciate your advice cause you seem to be very knowledgable in this area.

Thank you so much for your time and effort,

Diane

When I view source I see the keywords listed twice and I am not sure this is correct. I have it setup as follows:

That is probably because the HTKA box is checked for the index section so it is adding the default keywords to it.

Thanks...I worked it out. Just wondering if there was a different way to test for permissions on the files this contrib uses instead of comparing them to other files that may or may not have the permissions outlined in the install instructions.

Or, I guess...it could be noted there that the error messages are tied to the image directory.

Again thanks for the contrib. The new version works great :thumbsup:

Sheri

If the permissions on the images dorectory are 755, then those on the Header Tags files should be set to that too.

For a shop to work properly, the permissions on the images directory have to be set a certain way. Comparing against that makes the most sense. The instructions explictly states to set the permissions to 755 or 777, depending on your server. All the code does is check to see if that has been done. I don't know how much more clearly that can be stated.

HeaderTags_V_2

for some reason when i do this step on the product_info.php file it give me a blank page when i go to my products section...

can anyone help?

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>">

<title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title>

REPLACE with:

<?php

// BOF: Header Tag Controller v2.6.0

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

require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'header_tags.php');

} else {

?>

<title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title>

<?php

}

// EOF: Header Tag Controller v2.6.0

?>

Hi,

First of all sorry in advance for my bad English, I’m Italian…

I’m trying my first osCommerce and I get a problem after I’ve installed Header Tags Controller and set “true” STS > Default > “Use Templates?”

Then: if STS is set “true” Header Tags Controller doesn’t work, while if STS is set “false” Header Tags Controller works well.

For some other problem, I’ve changed the following in the /catalog/includes/application_top.php file:

FIND

require(DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . 'clean_html_comments.php');

require(DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . 'header_tags.php');

CHANGE TO

require_once(DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . 'clean_html_comments.php');

require_once(DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . 'header_tags.php');

I’m running oscommerce-2.2ms2, HeaderTags_V_2.6.2, STS v4.4

Please, if you may help me I would be very glad.

Thanks in advance, regards :)

That is because the code in the categories file always checks for an image upload. Since you are not uploading one, it gives the error. It could be disabled for Header Tags but is more bother than it is worth since no other contribution changes it and the error would most likely still occur. Just know that it doesn't mean anything unless you are actually trying to upload an image.

Please post just the head section of that file here.

Sounds like either your includes/header_tags.php or english/header_tags.php file is corrupted. You should try replacing those wih the ones from the contibution to see if that fixes it. If so, compare them to your originals to find the problem.
