custom work request for auctions meta tags Edit Delete Reply with quote Quote
First Post Posted on: 06-25-09 09:44 AM next post first post
custom work request for auctions meta tags\ \ I would like you to write code that will automatically write the meta tags and place them at the top of each auction page when posted. For example:\ \ The meta tag for Auction:\ HP R817 5.1 MP Digital Camera, Leather Case & 512 MP Memory Card\ \ Would be:\ \ Title:\ HP R817 5.1 MP Digital Camera, Leather Case & 512 MP Memory Card\ \ Description:\ HP R817 5.1 MP Digital Camera, Leather Case & 512 MP Memory Card\ \ Keywords:\ HP R817 5.1 MP Digital Camera, Leather Case & 512 MP Memory Card\ \ Html Code for meta tag:\ \ \ HP R817 5.1 MP Digital Camera, Leather Case & 512 MP Memory Card \ \ \ \ \ I have found a way to force search engines to index my auction pages but so for only getting the default meta tag. As you can see the advantage of having custom mata tags become quit apparent..\ \ Each tag would be generated form the actual auction title line.\ \ Most all search engines, will use all or part of the above meta tag, as well as page content to index the page. This would greatly im prove page ranking and site hits.\ \ \ So for I have managed to index\ 1,010 pages on Yahoo\ AltaVista found 966 results\ 202 On mSN\ And many many others\ \ But most have the same default meta tag and will not rank higher properly.\ \ If you can help please give me estimated cost and procedures on how we may proceed.\ \ Awaiting your reply\ Thanks\ BOB

Create a class and call it "HeaderItem", then copy all the contents of the class "Header" to it.

Now edit the class HeaderItem,  remove this code:


Code: HTML    Select All    Expand All
</p><p>&lt;title&gt;&lt;!--CLASS::Meta_Title--&gt;&lt;/title&gt;<br />&lt;meta name=&quot;Keywords&quot; content=&quot;&lt;!--CLASS::Meta_Keywords--&gt;&quot;&gt;<br />&lt;meta name=&quot;Description&quot; content=&quot;&lt;!--CLASS::Meta_Description--&gt;&quot;&gt;<br />

and insert your new meta tages and include any classes from the view item template:


Code: HTML    Select All    Expand All
</p><p>&lt;title&gt;&lt;!--Title--&gt;&lt;/title&gt;<br />&lt;meta name=&quot;Keywords&quot; content=&quot;&lt;!--Title--&gt;&quot;&gt;<br />&lt;meta name=&quot;Description&quot; content=&quot;&lt;!--Title--&gt;&quot;&gt;<br />

Of course you can add any text to these before or after the < !--Title-- >.

Now Edit the template ViewItem.html and replace the header class with the new header class HeaderItem


Code: HTML    Select All    Expand All
</p><p>&lt;!--CLASS::HeaderItem--&gt;</p><p>

This will do what you want.

Copy Meta Keywords from Category Listing Into My Auction Listing Edit Delete Reply with quote Quote

Hello Ahmed,\ \ I know this is an old post, but it is similar to the question I have.\ \ I am using the Title of the auction listing for my auction keywords. I would also like to add the keywords from the category, so it would look something like this:\ \ \ \


But I don't want the default "Meta_Keywords", I want to replace it with the Category keywords. \ \ What do I replace that with? \ \ Thanks for your time.\

All you need is to set the each specific category meta tags in the admin->category manager, click on edit for the category you want then put its meta tags, the software will only use the default tags if these category meta tags are empty.

Category Configuration  What's This?

Current Language:English
Category ID #:1

Auction Item Meta Tags Edit Delete Reply with quote Quote
Reply #: 4 Posted on: 11-13-11 04:21 PM next post previous post
Ahmed,

Thanks for your reply. I didn't explain myself apparently.

I have edited all of my categories' meta tags. They are all different than the default meta tags. But when you look at an auction lisitng's page source in any category, it only shows the default meta tags. I did a screen shot of:

1. category meta tags
2. category browse page source
3. Auction Item page source

These are all from the category "Gravel and Rocks", so the auction item listing should show the meta tags from that category, but it doesn't - it only shows the default meta tags.

So, what is my problem? Thanks again.
Dean

Now you cleared it, the view item page displays the item title, category name in the meta title, the other meta tags are the defaults, this is the same as all other pages. The category meta tags works on browsing the categories only, this is normal.
