Jack_mcs Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 I don't think you can add them as easily as you can with html files. I think the recommended way is to install the Header Tags Controller contribution.

H2O Posted December 24, 2003 Posted December 24, 2003 Hi. Since index.php and product_info.php are the most viewed pages, I added meta tags manually in those two pages. You can do so by opening both of these files, and find something similar to the following: <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html <?php echo HTML_PARAMS; ?>> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>"> <title><?php echo TITLE; ?></title> <?php require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . '/' . 'meta_tags.meta'); ?> <base href="<?php echo (($request_type == 'SSL') ? HTTPS_SERVER : HTTP_SERVER) . DIR_WS_CATALOG; ?>"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css"> </head> If you notice the line 6, I have included the meta-tags file - which is basically a text-file with all my meta information, and saved as meta_tags.meta so I don't confuse it with anything else. You can even replace that line by adding meta-tags directly there as well. Hope this helps, good luck. :)
