LG Better Meta: Having problems getting the title tag to work properly on the home page
Development and Programming
I have the all my Meta working on all my pages except home. I’m assuming that it would be the same as my other basic pages (about, services, contact) but for some reason I can’t get it to show the content from the “Entry meta” fields.
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="home" limit="1" disable="member_data|comments|trackbacks|pagination"}
{embed="includes/DOC-head" url_title="{segment_1}" title_prefix="Pre" title_suffix="title suffix" hide_site_title = "y" }
{/exp:weblog:entries}I am using friendly urls so my home page is: http://example.com/ Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks ~Jules
I believe the problem might actually have to do with
url_title="{segment_1}"Since I’m using friendly url’s what segment is the home page if it looks like this: http://mysite.com
URL Segment Variables Documentation: http://expressionengine.com/docs/templates/globals/url_segments.html
Appreciate any insights! Jules
I finally figured it out. Because of my friendly urls I needed to use entry_id instead of url_title
So for my hm page template I used:
{exp:weblog:entries weblog="home" limit="1" disable="member_data|comments|trackbacks|pagination"}
{embed="includes/DOC-head" entry_id="16" title_prefix="" title_suffix="" hide_site_title = "y" }
