Meta tags questions

Hello. I am fairly new to Zen Cart. I was trying to change the meta tags and the description for my website and have not had much luck. I did a search on the forums and found a lot of topics on it but have not been able to get them to work.

Most the forums I have seen say to change the includes/languages/english/meta_tags.php file to do this but I have not had any luck with this.

Just as an example, here is what I put into the meta_tags.php file:

// page title
define('TITLE', 'Scent From Me to You');

// Site Tagline
define('SITE_TAGLINE', 'scentfrommetoyou.com');

// Custom Keywords
define('CUSTOM_KEYWORDS', 'candle, candles, bath, body, online shopping');

And here is what the page source is saying:

<head> <title>Scent From Me to You, scentfrommetoyou.com</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <meta name="keywords" content="10 oz. Jars - Candles 16 oz. Jars - Candles Custom Candles Gift Sets 9 oz. Jars - Candles Bath and Body candle, candles, bath, body, online shopping " /> <meta name="description" content="Scent From Me to You - 10 oz. Jars - Candles 16 oz. Jars - Candles Custom Candles Gift Sets 9 oz. Jars - Candles Bath and Body candle, candles, bath, body, online shopping" /> <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" /> <meta name="author" content="Scentfrommetoyou.com" /> <meta name="generator" content="shopping cart program by Zen Cart™, <http://www.zen-cart.com> eCommerce" />

I have no idea what I am doing really. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

Re: Meta tags questions

Not sure what you mean by having any luck with this. It seems to be working fine.

tcooley2003:

// page title
define('TITLE', 'Scent From Me to You');

// Site Tagline
define('SITE_TAGLINE', 'scentfrommetoyou.com');

// Custom Keywords
define('CUSTOM_KEYWORDS', 'candle, candles, bath, body, online shopping');

And here is what the page source is saying:

<head> <title>Scent From Me to You, scentfrommetoyou.com</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" /> <meta name="keywords" content="10 oz. Jars - Candles 16 oz. Jars - Candles Custom Candles Gift Sets 9 oz. Jars - Candles Bath and Body candle, candles, bath, body, online shopping " /> <meta name="description" content="Scent From Me to You - 10 oz. Jars - Candles 16 oz. Jars - Candles Custom Candles Gift Sets 9 oz. Jars - Candles Bath and Body candle, candles, bath, body, online shopping" /> <meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" /> <meta name="author" content="Scentfrommetoyou.com" /> <meta name="generator" content="shopping cart program by Zen Cart™, <http://www.zen-cart.com> eCommerce" />

Re: Meta tags questions

I think, tcooley, is having the same issue[ that I am having.

The keywords meta tag is being repeated as part of the description. I would like to know if they can be seperated so that each provides unique content.

Suggestions?
