    Hello,

    you can try to:

    1. create a new plugin in vB admincp for "global_start" hook:
    PHP Code:
    $vbseo_tags_meta construct_phrase($vbphrase['threads_tagged_with_x_title'], htmlentities($_REQUEST['tag'])); 

    2. modify "headinclude" template for that:
    FIND:
    HTML Code:
    <else /><if condition="$show['foruminfo']">
    ADD ABOVE:
    HTML Code:
    <else /><if condition="$vbseo_tags_meta">
    <meta name="keywords" content="$vbseo_tags_meta, $vboptions[keywords]" />
    <meta name="description" content="$vbseo_tags_meta<if condition="$pagenumber>1"> - <phrase 1="$pagenumber">$vbphrase[page_x]</phrase></if>" />
    FIND:
    HTML Code:
    </if></if>
    ADD BELOW:
    HTML Code:
    </if>

    It works perfectly for TAG pages oleg,thanks...

    is there any conditional for "poll results" and "calendar" pages like , "$_REQUEST[tag]" ?
    i rewrote that pages and i dont want to cancel this...

    how can i add similar things in headinclude template for calendar,poll result or group pages ?

    With poll and calendar pages that will not work since details are not included in the URL in these cases (unlike tag.php?tag=TITLE). You will have to create a custom mod that modifies meta tag in the output on-the-fly.

    yes dont work :/

    shortly before, i ask for vbulletin is there any conditional for this kind of url's and wayne luke tells me to try :

    Code:
    <if conditional="THIS_SCRIPT =='calendar'">
    it was not work alone, but i modified it as below..

    now, i can catch calendar pages but i can not create any dynamic description or keyword.
    $vbphrase[calendar] phrase or similar is static for all calendar pages.that's the main problem :/

    anyway,thanks you again oleg.


    Code:
    <else /><if condition="THIS_SCRIPT =='calendar'">
    <meta name="keywords" content="$vbphrase[calendar], $vboptions[keywords]" />
    <meta name="description" content="$pagetitle" />

    Note: to avoid including the tag directly in meta tag, I recommend to create a plugin as described in edited post above: help.. google duplicate tags description

    For calendar pages the following can be added to the plugin code from post #2 to extract the title from event ID:
    PHP Code:
    if(THIS_SCRIPT=='calendar' AND $_REQUEST['eventid'])
    {
    $_meta_info $db->query_first("SELECT * FROM " TABLE_PREFIX "event WHERE eventid = ".intval($_REQUEST['eventid']));
    $vbseo_tags_meta htmlentities($_meta_info['title']);

    That will create custom meta descriptions on calendar event pages.
