jeff.lee Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 Hi DawPi! Thanks a lot for your great work! I have installed the hook, and set the key words and description (I didn't list meta tags, because I dunno what it is), but it seems not working when I tried to google my website? I don't know why. Please kindly help instruct. Thank you very much! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axel Wers Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Custom meta tags for modules would be good :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3DKiwi Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I couldn't get this mod / hook to work. Viewing the page source showed no meta data information. I manually added in my own meta data information. Google correctly displays this information. 3DKiwi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCV Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hello, I installed your hook, nice idea :) I would like to insert the following line on the home page only but that don't work : <link rel="canonical" href="http://www.url-of-my-index.com/" /> Do you know how to do that ? Many thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawPi Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 What is that? What this code does? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCV Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Wa can access on the same page by several url. for exemple : http://www.myforum.com/ http://myforum.com/ http://www.myforum.com/index.php etc... And that gives duplicate contents. So it's better to have on all these URL the command : <link rel="canonical" href="http://www.myforum.com/" /> With this, all index pages are known to be http://www.myforum.com/ and we have'nt duplicate content. Do you know how to add it ? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawPi Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 Oh, you mean add it in meta tags, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCV Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 It's not really important, just need to be in the <head></head> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawPi Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 Unfortunatelly IP.Board allow only for adding meta tags like that: Where NAME & CONTENT are custom texts. So for no you must add it manually in skin wrapper.<meta name="NAME" content="CONTENT" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCV Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Ha ok, but i'm not developper. I think i will find where add the code, but what is the code to add to add only the line on index page ?

Enkidu Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 or you could do this: your_skin, Board index, boardindex template bit, add the following to the very top of the template: addtohead is my favorite you can use it to add any thing you want to the header :){parse addtohead="<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"http://www.myforum.com/\" />" type="raw"} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
