Can anyone please tell me how to give our own meta description/keywords for the custom page instead of the default vb's meta info.
Can this be done from the page itself without using plugins. Thanks |

You can write whatever you want in the meta tags.

But how?
headinclude template is included in the page that already has the default METAINFO. How do I overwrite it ? Thanks |

Simply copy your meta tags from the in between <head></head> from the forumhome template (as your own meta tags should be there) and paste in between the <head> tags in the new page!

Under Style & Templates I have the "default style" and under that style I have a template called "CarTemplate" my forum uses the "CarTemplate" style....

And when you go to look at that page, what style are you personally using as you view it?

I am using vbadvanced dynamics, I have it set by default to override everyone to use that template "CarTemplate" so I know it isn't using the old default style....

FORUMHOME template DOES NOT HAVE keywords/description meta tags. Just the headinclude template has that info. See the problem is that when we create a custom page, we include $headinclude in OUR NEW template (that is associated with the new page). Now this makes the same old metainfo for the new page. If however, I try to add my own meta tags to the template, they are added twice (because of the headinclude template). How do I overwrite those default meta tags with mine?? Thanks |

The easiest way is to just put a condition in the headinclude template based on THIS_SCRIPT.

Isn't their a way to do it ONLY through the PHP file? or maybe using a plugin BUT without running an additional query. Thanks |
