I created a global called: "Meta_Description" and put some text in it; however, it has no effect on what is being displayed on pages?
Where do I set dedicated Meta_Description for each category? or at least for the entire site and for page builder pages.
I edited include_common_header.. but was not successful... and when I dump the page, I see Meta_Description in it!!!???

Thanks
Mark

There's a Meta_Description column in the Category table, so that's going to get pulled into the templates. Your Meta_Description global is going to get overridden by the Category table value.

Adrian

and how about the home page that does not seem to have Meta_Description or Meta_Keywords and what about static pages that are built by page_builder plugin...

thanks
Mark

Hi,

For the homepage, you can simply do:


...same goes for Meta_Keywords.

Thanks Andy

I created a Meta_Description global that only has text in it (a description of the site)... no sub or function or anything...
however, I can not see the Meta_Description tags exist or populated in the home.html or toprates...etc.
I even put <%Meta_Description%> in the home.html and nothing came out.. not tags showing...
Is the global suppose to be in specific way? like: Sub {lsjfjldsfjslfslfjk...}?
Thanks gain...

Call it Meta_Description2 , then it should work fine =)

Thanks again Adrian and Andy...
Since the Meta_Description is referring to Category Description field... I added an else statement in the include_common_head.html
to say<%if Meta_Description%>... ... <%else%><meta name="description" content="<%Meta_Description_2%>" /><%endif%>
And created the global: Meta_Description_2 and that solved it...

Thanks again...
