Trouble editing keywords and description

My website is https://www.countrymeadowltd.com

I need to change the keywords and the description but Im not doing something right.

If you look at the source code you will see:

<title>Country Meadow Ltd, Eco-Friendly Shea Butter Spa Products</title> I found out where to change this: language/english/mytemplate/meta-tags.ph

I also changed the key words to this:

Country Meadow Ltd, eco-friendly, shea butter products, soap, lotion, sugar scrub, bath, body, sustainable, skin care, natural, beauty, boutique, wholesale, customization, events, private label

HOWEVER this also shows up:
Collections Products Gift Boxes Special Occasions Gift Bags Clearance Items Limited Editions Gift Certificates Odds & Ends Gift Wrapping Eco-Friendly Promotions Event Packages Special Orders Seasons

I dont know where to change or delete this. Its does not show up in the meta-tag.ph file. It almost looks like its picking it up from the heading on my website??

Description shows up as this:

Country Meadow Ltd - Collections Products Gift Boxes Special Occasions Gift Bags Clearance Items Limited Editions Gift Certificates Odds & Ends Gift Wrapping Eco-Friendly Promotions Event Packages Special Orders Seasons Country Meadow Ltd, eco-friendly, shea butter products, soap, lotion, sugar scrub, bath, body, sustainable, skin care, natural, beauty, boutique, wholesale, customization, events, private label

I dont understand where to change the description as I dont see it in the meta-tag.ph file.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Re: Trouble editing keywords and description

Your changes took... you have them in the wrong places

Here is what you need to edit, in your_template/meta_tags.php

[B]// Home Page Only:[/B]

  define('[B]HOME_PAGE[/B]_META_DESCRIPTION', 'Your Description here');

  define([B]'HOME_PAGE[/B]_META_KEYWORDS', 'Country Meadow Ltd, eco-friendly, shea butter products, soap, lotion, sugar scrub, bath, body, sustainable, skin care, natural, beauty, boutique, wholesale, customization, events, private label');



  // NOTE: If [B]HOME_PAGE_TITLE[/B] is left blank (default) then TITLE and SITE_TAGLINE will be used instead.

  define('[B]HOME_PAGE_TITLE[/B]', 'Country Meadow Ltd, Eco-Friendly Shea Butter Spa Products'); 
// usually best left blank

The above edit will change your main page tags...

Edit the one NOT marked HOME_PAGE for all other UNDEFINED pages as below...

[B]/ page title[/B]

define('TITLE', 'Country Meadow Ltd');



// Site Tagline

define('SITE_TAGLINE', 'Eco-Friendly Shea Butter Spa Products');



// Custom Keywords

define('CUSTOM_KEYWORDS', 'Country Meadow Ltd, eco-friendly, shea butter products, soap, lotion, sugar scrub, bath, body, sustainable, skin care, natural, beauty, boutique, wholesale, customization, events, private label ');

Re: Trouble editing keywords and description

Thank you!!!
I dont mess around much in cpanel so I was just sort of winging it guessing at what I had to do.
I will follow your direction and see what happens!
Many thanks.
Ive been trying to figure this out for a week!!!

Re: Trouble editing keywords and description

Ok..I think Im screwed...or I just dont get it.

According to my LIMITED knowledge of cpanel I should be in:
myname/public_html/includes/language/english/mytemplate/meta_tags.php

I dont see where it says this anywhere:

// Home Page Only:

define('HOME_PAGE_META_DESCRIPTION', 'Your Description here');

define('HOME_PAGE_META_KEYWORDS', 'Country Meadow Ltd, eco-friendly, shea butter products, soap, lotion, sugar scrub, bath, body, sustainable, skin care, natural, beauty, boutique, wholesale, customization, events, private label');

Re: Trouble editing keywords and description

Hmmmmm I think I may know what the problem is.
I was thinking Classic was MY custom template but after reading here:
http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=128200
I see that its not.

How in the world do I find my custom template???
I have been all over cpanel and cant find anything that could be interpreted as my own template!

Re: Trouble editing keywords and description

Ive been in that file also.
Either its right in front of my face and I cant see it or my cpanel is messed up by the person who created my website.
I have an email in to another person who has worked on my site off and on doing little things.
Im not giving up yet!

I think you can search the files with dreamweaver, then you can find the special keyword mete page.
