dynamic meta tags v. 0.2.0

I have gone through and made all of the changes on my site as detailed in the install docs. Everything on the site seems to work, but when I view the source I do not see any meta tags. How do I know if it's working or how do I troubleshoot?

I do have one post for testing purposes at This Link. Still no meta tags showing in source.

There was one step in the installation that I think may be an issue.

This is an excert from includes/functions.php

Please, do not use fake signature.

Then, the install file tells you will find this code to explain how you could alter the default settings. It's not the full mod's code.

Then, about the meta on your forum's page, they do not show up at all actually, make sure you edited the required template and cleared the cache (all of it).

I have edited everything as instructed in the documentation, as well as cleared the cache. All of the files I modified can be found at www.employerforums.net/files.zip. Can you see what I may have done wrong?

From your online html source code :

The cache is empty. This is the file I have stored at styles/prosilver/template.

Well, the code is correct, but unless you configured you forum sitename to "2002-2006 phpBB Group", there is just no way you'll see :

sorry to be a pain, I don't understand this part. I've got the seo mod installed for phpbb 3.0.0.

When trying to install this, the section below doesn't exist in the includes/functions.php file. Sad

What am I missing here?

Thx in advance.

In in includes/functions.php, you'll find some pretty obvious code you may want to modify upon your needs :

$seo_meta['meta_title_def'] = $config['sitename'];
$seo_meta['meta_desc_def'] = $config['site_desc'];
$seo_meta['meta_keywords_def'] = $config['site_desc'];
$seo_meta['meta_lang'] = $config['default_lang'];
$seo_meta['meta_cat'] = 'general';
$seo_meta['meta_robots'] = 'index,follow';
$seo_meta['meta_distrib'] = 'global';
$seo_meta['meta_restype'] = 'document';
$seo_meta['meta_copy'] = $config['sitename'];

I'm not sure what I did differently this time, but I cleared the cache again and everything worked properly. Thank you for your help!
