Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

Well Carrie from BCSE came through and fixed the problem for me. Allegedly there was more steps to get this mod working then was in the readme.. SHe said she had to make a few changes to the files included with the mod but there was no mentioning that in the readme... It is all working perfectly now. BCSE support came through as promised-Jeff

Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

An update, the issue was the mod wasn't configured. This step must have been missed when he installed. I logged in and updated the info in the product_keywords.php and everything started working after that.

Just an FYI to anyone else having troubles. Make sure you've set up the configuration via the new link this mod creates in your admin.

Thanks Jeremy for trying to help! :)

Jeff,

Actually this is in the "usage" at the bottom of the readme.txt. Maybe some of it was missed?

Let me know if it's not clear and we'll update our instructions, but we usually don't have this issue of this step being missed.

Thank you!

Carrie

USAGE:


After installing the mod, create three "Extra Fields": "keywords" "description", and "title". If you do not want the keywords, description and title extra fields to show on the product details, uncheck the "show" checkbox.
Then choosing "Product Keywords" new link in the admin, allows the admin to assign which extra field is for the product meta title, keyword and description. Here you should use the exact title you named when you created the extra field.
Now meta keywords, meta description, and meta title can be added to each product.
If a product doesn't have keywords or description defined, the product title will
used to make meta keywords and the description will be
used to make a meta description.

Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

I'm a bit confused. When I click on "Product Keywords" in admin, I get this instruction:

Enter keywords or keyword phrases separated by a comma (,) that you want to appear on every product page

How does that correspond with the instruction: "assign which extra field is for the product meta title, keyword and description"?

Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

Scott,

That is an optional feature you can use. If you want to have a certain set of keywords on the product pages appended to the unique ones you enter in for each product, then you use this field. So if you want:
footwear, rainwear, sportswear

appended to every product's keywords, you use this field. Some use this feature some do not.

Let me know if you have more quesitons!

Thank you,

Carrie

Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

Thanks, but it is not working for me. My product pages still have the old desc and keywords.

Ex: http://www.hellyhansenusa.com/store/helly-hansen-adventure-top-pr-16945.html

The Extra field for this product reads:

Looking at source, that file shows:



The instructions for 4.0.x say


but I don't see what should be edited.

Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

You should find in the meta4.0.13.tpl in the zip some comments looking like:
{* BCSE begin *}
CODE HERE
{* BCSE End *}

you put this code in your meta.tpl in the same place you find it in the meta4.0.13.tpl (there is a meta.tpl for versions earlier than 4.0.13).

We did this because some people modify their meta.tpl and it was easier to demonstrate where code should go rather than the typical, Find this line and insert this code.

If that doesn't help, just email us your meta.tpl and we can send it back modified for you. Email support

Thanks,
Carrie

Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

Carrie, I sent my meta.tpl to your support team on Wednesday night. I'm looking forward to getting it back and finally fix this meta tags issue.

Thanks, Scott

Re: BCSE Meta Mods -Product Meta tags Pro.
 

Just sent. Sorry for the delay. I've been ill off and on all week, sometimes only able to work about 1 hour a day.

Thanks!
