removing product model from title bar

[madfastride]

The site I'm working on has a lot of products. Without modifying each individual product is there a way to set a global option in which the model is removed from the title? Thanks.

I'm in the same boat.

Would also like to know if there is a quick way to add a tagline that applies to category page titles only.

OK I've found a solution to the OP. It does remove the product model from page title, but I'm no php coder, so this solution may have side effects that I'm not aware of.

In includes/module/metatags.php, line 279, there is this piece of code:

$meta_products_name = $product_info_metatags->fields['products_name'] . ' [' . $product_info_metatags->fields['products_model'] . ']';

I deleted the later part of the code, so that it becomes:

$meta_products_name = $product_info_metatags->fields['products_name'] ;

Yes, that works globally, but since you're hacking out parts of the code, it has the side effect of removing all control over that feature via the admin. If you don't care about that, that's fine.

Thanks for the responses. I did amend the code mentioned to remove the Model number. I was just hoping there was some global setting in the admin panel that could be over ridden for reason DrByte mentions. I think this is okay though as we are using the model number to sync with the physical store front so we won't ever be using that. The only problem seems to be that sometimes people use the model number for google searches. This might be addressed in the future. Thanks again for the support.

Configuration > Product Info >
Meta Tags - Include Product Price in Title

There are some othe parts of this forum that say it is in Catalog > Product Types but these do not work - I am not sure what these ones are for!!

@billmad,

Thanks for your post, exactly what I was looking for. The ZC admin has a setting for everything!

It's tricky b/c you've got to change settings in 2 places in the admin area (and I always forget myself!)

1. Configuration -> Product Info (2 lines about showing meta tag pieces in the title)
2. Catalog -> Product Types (edit the layout) Turn off what you don't want to have show

And then tweak with your custom meta tags using the black & white meta editor for each product/category.

HTH!

Hi,
I want the product model, but not the brackets [] around it. Does anyone know how to remove them?
