Can I add the category name to my Title meta tag?

[josee225]

Hi,

My website address is here; www.cartamagicastore.com

I would like to add the category name, have the name of the store without the tagline and remove the price in my title tag to get this as a title:
Product name (remove price) | Category name | Store name (remove tagline)

I think I have to change the module/meta-tags.php file, but I have nowhere near enough experience in php to make some modifications to this file, and I am not sure how to add the category.

Could someone help me please ? Thanks in advance !

Here is the code in my meta-tags.php file:
