Here‘s your chance to see how your site looks to the search engines. If you want search engines to be steered away from your site you can by following the guidelines on the side panel.


I can't believe this! But most XOOPS sites does not output the supposed meta keywords for Search Engines!

Check how your site fare!

Yep. Should be double quotes, not single quotes. So how do we fix that? Anyone? This is very important...

1. Doesn't matter, just the prog that you test doesn't support the single quotes.
2. If you where right, it doesn't matter because most modern good search engines doesn't use the keywords anymore (for example Google)

I worked around this problem by installing XOOPS into its own directory, allowing me to have a static front (entry) page to my site. On the static entry page, my meta keywords tag is correct. Search engines usually hit that first.

if you're concerned about this...

there are a few things you 'could' do...what i did was just put some meta lines into my default theme's themeheader function:

from theme.php in the bluely directory (as that's my default theme:

...
function themeheader($show_rblock){
 global $xoopsConfig, $xoopsTheme;
?>
 
 
 echo "n";
...


if you check http://www.bcollar.org on that site you listed, you'll see my keywords show up. you could do this in a host of other places as well, like in the functions.php file, and actually change the XOOPS meta tags to do it this way instead, i just chose the theme.php cause i didn't want to change anything in the main XOOPS files..

but like others have said, keywords aren't really used by the major search engines, google has it's own ranking system which is based off of the content in your site, not your meta tags.

Nevermind. I hardcoded it in /include/functions.php and just escaped double quotes. I also added a few more meta tags that suit me.

No it doesnt, not 100%, in 2.0.6, the meta description in still not working on my site...

...it seems the keywords are working, so that had been fixed... but the meta description doesnt seem to work with themes that deal with theme.php files.
