    Default Where is this coming from?

    So I ahve edited my meta tags.php and the top bars are all good, but when i try to paste the link to my site into my Facebook page, the description that autopopulates is still

    Zen Cart!, The Art of E-commerce
    http://www.misterguns.com/catalog/

    Zen Cart! : - ecommerce, open source, shop, online shopping

    Where is that coming from/ How do I get rid of the Zen Cart lingo?

    Ok Odd observation.

    My cart is in the catalog folder.

    if I paste www.misterguns.com into the Facebook window it gives me the zencart art of ecommerce problem. If i paste http://www.misterguns.com/catalog/ into the window the description is correct...what is up with that?

    Possibly cacheing on facebook?

    the very very first time you added your site to Facebook had you changed the meta tags.

    So... If I pointed Google maps to my neighborhood, I should be upset if it doesn't show a picture of my house?
    These computer contraptions are not psychic. Your cart is in catalog, so it stands to reason that NOT using /catalog could get anything listed. Sounds like you might have an old version in the root.

    @ Nigel...I tried it from my wifes facebook too...on a separate machine with no relationship whatsoever.

    Try it on yours...paste www.misterguns.com into your status...you'll see...then paste it with /catalog on the end...

    @DBLtoe...there is absolutely nothing in the root besides htaccess (and catalog)...not a single file, folder, etc....

    Thanks much to both of you...
