LG Better Meta - Help!
Development and Programming
Hello,
We are trying to implement the “LG Better Meta” extension, with little success :(
Tried everything with this now, can somebody please shed some light on what we are doing wrong?
I have included screenshots of the extension page in EE with the LG Better Meta plugin, the tags used in our HTML document, the entry (so that you can see this entry does actually exist!) and the resulting output…which currently is nothing!
The Entry visible in the weblogs
Thanks in advance for your help!
What happens if you use the extension settings template (not the tag pair) like so:
{exp:lg_better_meta_pl:template entry_id="__entry_id_goes_here__"}Using this…
{exp:lg_better_meta_pl:template entry_id="123610"}
<title>{title}</title>
<meta name='description' content='{description}' />
<meta name='keywords' content='{keywords}' />I get this in the output…
<title>{title}</title>
<meta name='description' content='{description}' />
<meta name='keywords' content='{keywords}' />It doesnt parse the tags at all. ???
What is the value of the “Meta template” setting in the extension settings.
{exp:lg_better_meta_pl:template entry_id="123610"}is replaced by the meta template.
If you mean the in the Extension settings, the code in the “Meta Template field is as follows;
<title>{title}</title>
<meta name='description' content='{description}' />
<meta name='keywords' content='{keywords}' />
<meta name='robots' content='{robots}' />
<meta name='geo.position' content='{latitude},{longitude}' />
<meta name='geo.placename' content='{placename}' />
<meta name='geo.region' content='{region}' />
{if canonical_url}<link rel='canonical' href='{canonical_url}' />{/if}
<link rel='schema.DC' href='http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/' />
<link rel='schema.DCTERMS' href='http://purl.org/dc/terms/' />
<meta name='DC.title' content='{title}' />
<meta name='DC.creator' content='{author}' />
<meta name='DC.subject' content='{keywords}' />
<meta name='DC.description' content='{description}' />
<meta name='DC.publisher' content='{publisher}' />
<meta name='DC.date.created' scheme='DCTERMS.W3CDTF' content='{date_created}' />
<meta name='DC.date.modified' scheme='DCTERMS.W3CDTF' content='{date_modified}' />
<meta name='DC.date.valid' scheme='DCTERMS.W3CDTF' content='{date_valid}' />
<meta name='DC.type' scheme='DCTERMS.DCMIType' content='Text' />
<meta name='DC.rights' scheme='DCTERMS.URI' content='{rights}' />
<meta name='DC.format' content='text/html' />
<meta name='DC.identifier' scheme='DCTERMS.URI' content='{identifier}' />and also we have tried changing this to just…
<title>{title}</title>
<meta name='description' content='{description}' />
<meta name='keywords' content='{keywords}' />Still no luck :(
Can you upload a screenshot of the extension settings?
Hi again,
Thanks to Leevi for providing such great support with this extension.
We have quite a complicated MSN setup so we do have issues occasionally with some plugins and extensions, but Leevi gave us some great assistance with resolving this, and even help make some slight changes to the plugin itself to work with our setup.
Thanks for your help, and thanks for a great extension!
Is there a way to place content from a custom entry field into the “description” meta tag? I know I can clean and truncate using some add-ons, but I didn’t know if there was a way to get that content into LG Meta.
