Hi,

I'm developing a new site and am trying to get the 'System Tag Meta' plugin to work.

The component seems to work fine without the plugin and the meta is correct. Am I correct in thinking these two extensions work independently of each other?

If I enable the plugin, the article meta title and html title does not show in the source code. What shows is the category meta for whatever category the article belongs to. But the article meta is correct for description and keywords.

I am also using Joomla 1.5 SEO Patch, would this be conflicting with the plugin?

Paul

Hi Paul,
please, send me your configured items, and the URL to call to make some tests.

Hi Luigi,

Not quite sure what you need!

This is the site:
www.flooringdomain.com

Quite empty at present as we're working on it to get it into Google for the main terms and have succeeded. In a few days PR3 and Ist page positioning, thanks to Tag Meta on some menu items:

Included a dump file of Tag Meta

The plugin is disabled at at the moment so as not to cause meta problems.

Just a couple of articles at:
www.flooringdomain.com/contract-flooring-journal

If you look at the articles and menu meta, all is OK.
If I enable the plugin, the article description and keywords are OK, but page title and meta title would be the same as the category meta.

Ok,
check your pluging settings. Tag Meta plugin allows you to manage Title and meta title of your pages (see attachment).

If you still got problem, send me screenshot of your settings.

Hi Luigi,

I enabled the plugin again because some meta description was not showing, but now cannot do meta title for articles.

Have uploaded image of plugin settings.

No,
the problem with articles is different. You have configured items as follow (just as example):



So, when you call an article with URL:



These URL still match meta tag for section or category (the first item in the example above).

Please, add a dollar ($) at the end of all your URL related to sections or category, as follow:



This means "end with" and the URL related to an article will not match anymore with it.

Remember that Tag Meta uses regular expressions. This is powerful, but requires a little practice.

Let me know,
Luigi

Hi Luigi,

I did exactly as you recommended and it now works OK.

Many thanks for the valued advice and help.

Kind regards,
Paul
