Thanks HB

do you think we should we use both? titles twice?

is title a meta? is there value in seo for this?

I see that in meta keywords there is included only text and phrases of the topic content, not the topic title.
Some way to solve this?

I guess could be like the rewrite of advanced rewrite, to pick the "topic title", to replace all characters with "," and to just let one "," between letters. So you could have "::topic_title-example2-example3->title2::" and it could be rewriten to ",topic,title,example2,example3,title2" and that way coul be included in the rist statement declaration in

@tweety

Page title and meta tags are two different things, and yes you should use both mods.

@arkantos

The next version will introduce some function to format any string into keywords list, will be easy to do what you want.

But, note that the topic title will already appear in the meta description, so it won't be necessarily a great SEO enhancement to repeat them this way.

Hi, thanks for the mod!

I am trying to customize the description a bit but need some help. In view forum, I would like to include the last couple of topic titles in that forum. Is that possible? Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Jenny

@jenny Welcome Very Happy

What you're asking for would be quite some added work when building the page, and mostly SEO useless IMHO.

@Ľubor on day, I'll do something for your nickname Wink

And no worries, the mod will work directly with simple sub forum, whatever version Wink

@tweety

Sorry for the file to edit list, it's not that much of a deal, but still.

Anyway, I don't think this is what causing us trouble here.

The blank page most likely mean a small error we cannot see with your server settings.
Do you have access to the server erro logs ?

You could try to put back the unmodified files for index.php, viewforum.php and viewtopic.php, and see if you still get the blanck page, if so go further in going back to unmodified files to find out which file is causing the error.

@lavinya
I do not get it sorry.

By the way, could you both post in the phpBB SEO MODS forum as suggested, this thread is meant to provide support for 0.0.1.

Hi,
I have installed the simple subforums mod.
Could this be a problem for the Dynamic Meta Tags to work on my forum?
