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

A small bug in the new SEO titles feature:

Whenever we view Rankings for any user, it shows Arcade - Your Rankings in page title.

in which template do we need to make the code changes?

There's only one, it's called ARCADE.

Mr. Zeropage, it works just fine.

$ibprotitle displays "<Forum Title> - Arcade - <Game name>". Is there a way to modify this variable just to show <Game name>?

Put %ACTION% in the HTML-Title format option in the Arcade Options of your admincp

Thank you! It works well. The settings are under "Arcade Main Settings" under "Arcade" menu.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
