SEO: dynamic TITLE-Tag in Arcade · **Released**: 01-04-2009

Hello,

using ibProArcade v2.6.8+ and later you have a new setting in AdminCP -> Arcade -> Main Settings to adapt the TITLE-Tag within the Arcade.

This way it is possible to say "playing Snake" in the TITLE which is good for search-engine-optimization.

I am sorry to forget to adapt the ARCADE-Template in the release of v2.6.8+ so please do the following manual adaption to the ARCADE-Template in your style(s) to make use of the dynamic TITLE:

search for

Code:

<title><phrase 1=$vboptions[bbtitle]>$vbphrase[x_powered_by_vbulletin]</phrase></title>

and replace it with

Code:

<title>$ibprotitle</title>

Please notice that this will only work and have effect if you correctly upgraded to ibProArcade v2.6.8+ meaning all files need to be actual version.

Enjoy

Excellent! I just did this to my arcade.

I can not seem to find this any where in my templates. What files should we be looking in?

Just done this, although I don't know why this can't just be set as default.

The title doesnt seem to work on VB4

to fix this

open arcade/functions/functions.php

find

Code:

		$templater->register('footer', $footer);

below that paste

Code:

		$templater->register('ibprotitle', $ibprotitle);

save the file and upload it.

The title will now work on vB4

Hello,

I use IbPRO 2.7.0, I setup the title "<title>$ibprotitle</title>" and I used the fix for functions.php.

The title of my page "Arcade" and for each games is:

Name Forum - Arcade (Arcade home's page)

Name Forum - Arcade - Name Game (Arcade game's page)

I would like invert to:

Arcade - Name Forum

Name Game - Arcade on Name Forum

Where Can I modify these settings please?

Thanks

editing the functions.php file only works until you have to upgrade VB, then you have to re-edit the functions.php file again. There must be some way to get this working without the file edit.
