NETQUOTEVAR:HEADERMETA should do it. And it is indeed there. Can you let us see a URL of your store?

Sorry for the delay in replying - been offline

home page is at www.eyecare-cosmetics.co.uk

I have entered Eye, Care, Cosmetics as keywords and a description of Eye Care Cosmetics into the relvant sections in Actinic.

the Act_BrochurePrimary has the following between head tags

<HEAD>

<TITLE>NETQUOTEVAR:PAGETITLE</TITLE>
<Actinic:BASEHREF VALUE="NETQUOTEVAR:BASEHREF" FORCED=NETQUOTEVAR:BASEHREFFORCED/>
<META NAME="ACTINICTITLE" CONTENT="NETQUOTEVAR:PAGEHEADER">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

Hang on now I look at the source they appear to be there but when I try to use a meta-tag analyzer it says it cannot find them

cdicken

It doesn't detect any of them at all? Hmmm....

What software is it you are using? It should definitely detect something.

I entered the phrase

one two, three

into the 'Meta Keywords' field in the 'Edit | Catalog Details' window. Actinic turned this into:

<META NAME="Keywords" CONTENT="one two, three,">

The commas were all bog-standard commas.

I was doing it online at http://www.seomasters.com/meta-tag-analyzer/

JimboS

27-Nov-2003, 03:59 PM

I have tried adding the metatag keyword and description by hand and these are then detected?

cdicken

Well, you know what my next question's going to be....

What is the difference between the way you do meta keywords and the way Actinic does it? Can you give some examples?

Okay then at http://www.eyecare-cosmetics.co.uk the header section reads:
<HEAD>

<TITLE>NETQUOTEVAR:PAGETITLE</TITLE>
<Actinic:BASEHREF VALUE="NETQUOTEVAR:BASEHREF" FORCED=NETQUOTEVAR:BASEHREFFORCED/>
<META NAME="ACTINICTITLE" CONTENT="NETQUOTEVAR:PAGEHEADER">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<!onMouseover Link CSS Script-© Dynamic Drive (www.dynamicdrive.com). For full source code, installation instructions, 100's more DHTML scripts, and Terms Of Use, visit dynamicdrive.com--><style></style>

</HEAD>

But at http://www.eyecare-cosmetics.co.uk/acatalog/index.html the header section reads:
<HEAD>

<meta name="description" content="eyecae cosmetics">
<meta name="keywords" content="eyecare, cosmetics">
<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">

If I enter the first into a metatag analyser it says there are no keywords or description but the second find the keywords eyecare and cosmetics???

Well, Actinic is generating the following code to replace NETQUOTEVAR:HEADERMETA:

<META NAME="ACTINICTITLE" CONTENT="Online Catalogue"><META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <META NAME="ActinicKey" CONTENT="3eb2eefcf92a5e43c01da956eacb269c0">
<META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="accxecom9">

... but your keywords are still not there.

Where have you entered your keywords? Have you right-clicked on the green 'Online Catalog' icon and selected 'Edit'? That's where meta information goes for the store.

JimboS

Yes that is where I have entered the meta-tag information.

That is where you should be entering everything. I suspect that you have got a problem in your database that means the meta tags are not being inserted into the pages. It may be you have a slightly corrupt database. I'm not sure.

So you are definitely sure that none of the meta tags you enter anywhere in Actinic are not going into the pages?

I am at a loss here. Can I suggest you register an email support at
http://www.actinic.co.uk/support/register.htm and have someone try your snapshot for themselves.

If I look at your catalog index page I can clearly see the meta tags so they are being inserted.

In fact I can see them twice, presumeably once that you've manually inserted before the title, and again after the title tag which actinic has inserted.

Either it's fixed or your looking at a cached version of the page rather than the online source code.
