    Default Custom meta tags for category and products

    When I create a specific meta tags for categories or products, title is updated but keywords and description are still the same as homepage.

    Am I missing something ?

    You could supply more information ...

    - version of Zen Cart
    - what versions you've upgraded from
    - what addons/contributions you have installed
    - URL to your site so we can see it in action
    - which languages have you enabled in your site?
    - does this happen to ALL products and categories? or just some? which ones?
    - how exactly did you "add" these custom metatags? which pieces did you fill in? which fields did you leave blank, and why?
    - version of PHP
    - version of MySQL
    - list of all customizations you've made to your site
    .

    Turn it off. Doesnt work either.

    I have tried a fresh install of 1.37 on another domain, same server, and it does work.

    So, it is something with this install.

    I would re install and transfer template, but I did not do it, and I belive template as been installed in core files, rather then using the template overide.

    A Clean install of Zen Cart on this server is another method to test ... otherwise I'd say switch to Classic Template but that is hard to do when you have overwritten things ...

    1. What customizations exist in your /includes/modules/meta_tags.php file?
    2. Do you have a meta_tags.php file in your /includes/modules/Bonsai folder? How does it differ from the original /includes/modules/meta_tags.php file?
    3. Do you have a custom /includes/templates/Bonsai/common/html_header.php file? How is it different from the original default normally located in /includes/templates/template_default/common ?

    1. Same file. no modification.

    2. Yes, one meta_tags.php file exist in Bonzai and it is different. It seems no mods were added, but it is a different and previous version of the file in the default 1.37 file.

    3. No custom html_header in /Bonzai/common

    I think I found the problem. in language/english/meta_tags.php I had a description under Custom Description.

    I had a 2005 version of the meta tags.php file.

    But now, my main page as the keywords as description in the meta. How do I define a description only for the main page ?
