And welcome :D

Actually, it's a good idea, but there would be a problem with html posted in forum description, as we only can use plain text in meta tags.

So this would require to filter all html tags additionally.

I'll see what's doable for next version ;)

Looks a lot like the one i converted :wink:
I've been trying to get it to work with the album, like getting the category and pic title in the description.
Any ideas?

And Welcome sir ;)

Then, I don't know about your mod, but what I know is there are not a hundred ways to query for some useful info in this case.

As said in the install, I took this one as a starting base and mostly added category support so far.

Anyway, meta tags are not as important as they use to.
The main interest is to have dynamic Meta's here, because overall, it's still a bit of a plus to show related description and keywords. Better than nothing I'd say here ;)

Then, for the album, is it smartor's ?

I agree, some search engines still use them but the big ones don't.
They show up on serps like google so that's a plus (i'd click a link with that kind of description faster then some blabla link).

Yep, did some tweaks on it recently and now i'm waiting to see if it worked and the metatag part would help a lot :wink:

Hello

I dont understand the instructions.

" If you use the phpbbstyle.com sql cache system, just look for //SQL CACHE and
# uncomment (and comment) the proper lines
# Also, make sure you change FEW_MORE_KEYWORDS_COMA_SEPARATED, YOUR_DEFAUT_DESCRITPION,
# YOUR_DEFAULT_KEYWORDS_COMA_SEPARATED, YOUR_AUTHOR_INFOS & YOUR_COPYRIGHT_INFOS with the proper infos.
# Note : YOUR_AUTHOR_INFOS & YOUR_COPYRIGHT_INFOS lines are commented by default, because it is not
# needed in most cases. Uncomment the proper lines if you want those to be outputted as well."



I am supposed to replace YOUR_DEFAULT_KEYWORDS_COMA_SEPARATED
with 20 ketwords?

and replace YOUR_DEFAUT_DESCRITPION
with a short description?

and FEW_MORE_KEYWORDS_COMA_SEPARATED
replace with what? smore mopre keywords? other than already used? and how many?

Exactly, 20 or less. This list will be used for your index basically.

asiaexpat wrote:and replace YOUR_DEFAUT_DESCRITPION

Again, yes, and this will be your index's description.

And ... yes, but this is only to add one or two keywords you find very important, they will show up at the end of the keyword list calculated for categories, forums and topics. Just do not add too many words in this one.

You could as well not use this last one and just replace it with nothing if you prefer.

sorry im a little confused here. After installing this mod the meta tags for a corvette cars post will be corvette relate tags for example? or simply random tags? but random inside the post? or totaly random inside the search tables.

Can you please give to me a little better explanation of how this mod works? what it does? Wich are the advantages of that?

Hi i nstall the mod but have some troubles. In sorce code of my post we can see:

<meta name="description" lang="en" content="Tupincho.net - Foros de discusión :: Esteroides anabólicos y otros compuestos :: Esteroides anabólicos y otros compuestos (Ciclos, orales y/o inyectables) :: Ayuda, primer ciclo Deca, Dianabol. Comentarios, Correccione" />

The phrase Esteroides anabólicos y otros compuestos :: is repeated. And correspond to the variable $meta_row['cat_title']

Its also happening at index, categories and posts.

What do you recomend? remove that variable of my code?

By now i coment the variable in order to avoid it. but do you recomend other thing?

I think this is the $board_config['sitename'] instead.

You can of course play with the info and variables orders ;)

I am not sure to understand, if you want to prevent $board_config['sitename'] to be outputted, just delete it in the code (with the following "::") ;)

Yes i solved that part. Now my meta tags are not accurately at all. I include 265 words in the .txt file at language folder and rebild my search. I think i have to include more words, and numbers, meta tags shows a lot of numbers.

My search tables goes from 110 mb to 74 mb. Probably i have to filter the keyword one more time or two more times.

And it's a really good thing to clean your search table, you'll win page load time while narrowing your keywords ;)

Take your time to do so, as the main interest of dynamic meta tags is to be dynamic, it's just a really great occasion to take car about your search tables to seek better keywords for topics :D
