And welcome

Well, phpBB page title are not defined in page_header.php, take a look at this thread to find out more.

You could as well take the info's from the meta tags calculus, but you would loose the old titles for pages not being index, categories, forums and topics.

It's better do do it from the files so that you don't mess up with the entire titling system.

Thanks - Ahh....I see

hi

i asked you to tell me hoe can i remove keyword metatag and you said me how can i do it.
now i want to know

is it possible to have keyword metatag only for first page (index.php) ?

If I remember well, the problem was only concerning the UTF-8 topic keywords, as you where not able to properly filter words from the search tables according to their size.

So, you could just work with a longer search_stopwords.txt, including one and two letters words, or just disable the keywords for topics, but leave everything else as his for a normal install.

You should just find and delete :

Code: Select all

        $sql = "SELECT w.word_text
                FROM " . TOPICS_TABLE . " t, " . SEARCH_MATCH_TABLE . " m, " . SEARCH_WORD_TABLE . " w
                WHERE t.topic_first_post_id = m.post_id
                AND m.word_id = w.word_id
                AND t.topic_id = $meta_topic_id LIMIT 20";
        if( ($result = $db->sql_query($sql)) ) {
      $keywords = '';
      while ( $meta_row = $db->sql_fetchrow($result) ) {
         $keywords .= ($keywords == '') ? $meta_row['word_text'] : ',' . $meta_row['word_text'];
      }

In the mod's code (page_header.php) and eventually, to prevent empty keywords tags to be outputted find :

Code: Select all

$phpbb_meta .= '<meta name="keywords" content="' . $keywords  .'" />' . "\n";

And replace with :

Code: Select all

$phpbb_meta .= isset($meta_topic_id) ? '<meta name="keywords" content="' . $keywords  .'" />' . "\n" : '';

Hi I have installed Dynamic Meta tags MOD.
My board is in English but this MOD has this line

Code: Select all

$phpbb_meta .= '<meta name="description" lang="fr" content="'. $description .'" />' . "\n";


How to change it to english.

Hello, nims. just change fr to en

Code: Select all

$phpbb_meta .= '<meta name="description" lang="en" content="'. $description .'" />' . "\n";

Thanks Peter

is there anyway that
instead of random words
you can actually do a keyword density
and avoid pronouns,
do things like get 3 word phrase keywords...

Well, this is getting a lot better after you go through the meta tag and search table optimisation

The thing is we really want to output keywords that really are in the topic. Keywords should show up as they should be among the most used words in the forum.

I applied this mod but I am not sure if it is working or not--

I can see the keywords that I put in but i dont see any keywords from the topic. can you take a look and tell me if it is working?

I had installed a another meta tag mod years ago and maybe it is blocking the effect of your mod.

edit====Now I see if I open the post from the last post icon the source code is different than when i open from the topic name in the topics list. Same thread -different source codes

yep, post URLs are not our target, should be disallowed, so no need to add work for them

I've installed that mod but i see always my meta keyword...

I cannot check what's happening on your web site right now, it's unavailable from where I stand.

As, well it's handy hen asking for support to post a link

Are there any plans to update this MOD.
I see that the dynamic keyword generation is generating keywords like "kind,kindly,urgent etc" that actully do not have much weight / meaning or requirement in the keyword section.

Can this be improved ?
Secondly I dont see any phrases being added like "English songs, movie reviews etc" there are only single word keywords. So I feel there is a great scope for improvement.

The thing is we want to go fast as meta tags are not important enough to waist to much server resources.

So far, it's only selecting the most used words in the forum being as well part of the first post of each topic.

If you properly apply the optimizing method, you'll end up with a faster forum and better keywords.

I do plan to update this mod anyway, my goal will be to do better without adding as much SQL (it's not much right now, but could be lowered down I think). We'll see how far we can go
