Thread: News And Articles TITLE (for SEO)

Hello,

I noticed that the title tag of the Articles generated via Admin Articles as well as Site news, look like " Your Site Articles".

In articles.php in dolphin cms i need to modify something in this part but i don't know what :

"$_page['header'] = _t( "_ARTICLES_H", $site['title'] );
$_page['header_text'] = _t( "_ARTICLES_H1" );"

what should i modify in order to get the exact title of the article ?

I am not 100% sure what you are asking.. but you can just use the language editor in admin to change the values of _ARTICLES_H and _ARTICLES_H1 to what you want.

Hello again,

The thing i want is to change the way the articles are being indexed in google. Now if i have an article named : "How to grow flowers" , google sees only "My Site Articles" and this is the way all articles are being seen by search engines.

Hope i answered ok

Actually, as far as i realise, is the mainTitle that i want to have as an article title tag.

Hello,

I asked a question yesterday but i didn't get the answer i really needed. So, the way admin articles and site news are indexed in google ( the title it gets) is in this form "My Domain Articles" and this is bad for google. No matter how many articles you have, google will see all of them as the same "My Domain Articles", even if you have one article title How to answer, or another one I don't know, google will index their titles as My Domain Articles.

That is nooooooooot ok at all.

Thank you in advance. I hope somebody knows how to do it

You can try this... not elgently coded, but easy to understand

BxDolArticles.php

In

Code:

function getArticle( $iArticleID )

add in the Global section

Code:

global $sTitle;

articles.php

Change the code to

Code:

if ($sTitle === "")
{ 
$_page['header'] = _t( "_ARTICLES_H", $site['title'] );
$_page['header_text'] = _t( "_ARTICLES_H1" );
}
else
$_page['header'] = $site['title']. " - " .$sTitle;
$_page['header_text'] = $site['title']. " - " .$sTitle;

Hello again,

I tried to modify the Site News the same way Admin Articles but it doesn't work. I guess i would have to modify it a bit.

Can you tell me the mod needed ? Hope i'm not disturbing ...

Thank you again
