Dynamic meta tags!

msimonds · #1 03-09-2006, 01:59 PM

Since a lot of people have been able to get vbseo to work on other applications, is there a way to get the dynamic meta tags to work outside the forums on these products such as vbadvanced for example?

I guess no one using vbadvanced or any other product has or was able to get the meta tags to work outside the forum

If there is a way, i would like to see an example!

Hello Mike,

vBSEO rewrites meta tags at known locations only (like forumdisplay/showthread/showpost vB pages), because it cannot prepare *relevant* replacement for unknown pages.
This can be achieved with template modification, but if you have an idea for vBSEO, please let us know!

I talked to Juan on the phone about this briefly and asked him about what could be done about this

Let me try and explain how my custom CSS works. the articles are generated from a designated forum, example being forum id 189 is my news forum which displays the stories on my front page. Since vbseo already does the rewriting of dynamic meta tags prior to the page rendering in the browser, I was thinking this:

Development of my CMS is almost complete so it can work with vbseo and vb3.5.*. The developer has successfully been able to get vbseo to rewrite the pages. How he did this I do not know. I thought that since my cms is totally vBulletin templated and based, that it could use the same functions used from vbseo to do the same thing that it currently does in the forumdisplay and other areas

I am not sure that I get your comment about this

I am sure that somewhere in your scripts there is a function that does the dynamic rewriting of the description and tags. If I could somehow invoke this function in my CMS, since I am using vbseo to do the rewriting, then I would think that it would be possible

Let me know what you think

Thanks for the help, I really apprecaite it

Currently it is not possible, but we will include a special function for this in vBSEO 2.4.1: vbseo_replace_meta($metaname, $replace_content)

It can be called at any place in your custom CMS.
An example of usage is:

Quote:

if(@include_once('includes/functions_vbseo.php'))
{
vbseo_replace_meta('keywords', 'keywords replacement');
vbseo_replace_meta('description', 'description replacement');
}
