I'm sorry, but this is one of those situations where if you don't know what you did then how is anyone else supposed to know?

The only practical suugestion is to roll back to how your site was before you made the latest changes, and then try re-addng them again.

I'm assuming you kept an unedited copy of the files you've changed?

Vger

i changed something in the product config in admin

have just deleted and re-installed means i am back at square one but least i know not to mess with the product stuff :unsure:

And assuming you haven't (because you thought it was just a teensy weensy change! We've all done it! :D) then

a) remember next time to ALWAYS have a backup of the working file and

b) you could try switching back to the classic template to identify whether it's a template issue or core file.

In that case, you make ONE change in admin, check it out (TWICE! at least!) before making the next.

i know and now i have done the install i am back to the same problem of having the model number in the title of the page :huh:

seems sometimes i just can't win

Exactly what are you wanting to do?

well now i am back to where i started, i would like to remove the tags in my titles when i click on the products, as it is showing everything

<title>You're An Angel \[code] - price : Zen Cart!, The Art of E-commerce</title>

and i followed the advice i found in forum and killed the whole thing and still don't know how, except i was tired last night so will put it down to a misconfig on my part but i don't want to do it again

had to change folders too

Sounds like you want to edit the Meta Tags description. If yes, this tutorial should help.

that is a good tut but its not the problem, my meta tags is empty and i still have the same things in my title, i don't know why they are there are where they are from and thats how i killed the site last time when i tried turning off the meta tags via admin

Ro,
Did you follow this step also???

i followed all the steps and had it all sorted just for that one little thing, i even took out all the meta tags to see if that would stop it but finally found it, hiding in some settings in the admin panel

Ro,
Sweet,
Just curious, what was the setting in the admin panel??

its in configuration

i just turned off the Display Product Manufacturer Name and Display Product Model

and turned off the meta tags in Product Info just price and model

Ro,
Thanks for the update, glad you are up and running
