Hello Guys,
I can't figure out how to set the page title and meta description for a "top level" menu. The title and meta data of the joomla menu are ignored.
Any ideas?
Kind regards,
Meton
Since i still don't know how this is done i am looking for a good sef or seo plugin. Any recommendations?
Kind regards, Meton
why not set it in the category itself?
It will always work there

I can't, i am linking to a top level category, and i cannot figure out how to set the meta data and title (top level = root) or am i missing something?
Kind regards,
Meton

Hi Pro,
Thx for the reply, this is not a category. Let me try to explain.
I have created a menu with the following settings:
- Menu type = category layout
- Selected category = top level category
This menu is pointing to the root of the category's. There is no way (that i know) to set the title and meta.
Kind regards,
Meton
what does the title say?
and why not just use vmart frontpage ?

In the current title i can see the name of the menu.
and why not just use vmart frontpage ?
I was to limeted in design and functions. I wanted a page with articles / images / populair products etc the default frontpage did not give me enough flexibility
you can also use a joomla article page , and modules?
I will go ahead and buy sh404SEF. This gives me all te flexibility that i want and it will solve this issue as well. So this case can be closed :P
Thanks for your reply's guys i appreciate it!
Kind regards,
Meton

That scares me a bit to be honest ... i have read allot about this addon and gone trough documentation and video's and it all seemed usefull. Ill give you guys a update on this extention and how it works.
Main reason why i want this product is because i can rewrite URL's an create a alias for url's. Redirect 404 pages, keep track of performance and the security features that it offers. Currently when i add a product i am always adding a menu because i want to setup the URL specificly.
Kind regards,
Meton

The title and meta data of the joomla menu are ignored.
So I would say the meta data is missing for that case. Just a matter of priority to fix that.
