Title tag code

[Wello1234]

Hi,

I have a couple of websites where I can't define the title tag (CMS does not support it) on a few default pages.

On these pages "the system" just uses the primary/main title tag (from the frontpage) and my programming skills (as if I have any...!) have not been able to make a html code or something to override the main title tag on these specific pages.

Does this make sense at all and can anyone give me a hint, a code to try out or something?

Problem is that I now have 3 pages with the same title tag which in terms of SEO isn't too good, so to say...

Thanks in advance.

What CMS? I might be able to help out once I know that.

Hi George,

Thanks for your reply.

It is a local (Danish) web shop solution called "Dandomain", so my guess is that you don't know it

About 50.000 online shops in Denmark use this shop, but not many from other countries.

If you have an idea on what to do i would really appreciate it.

Thanks

Jan

Translation sucks a bit, but I think it's saying it can be set at the page level in the CMS dashboard.

Try out Brent's solution in your dashboard and let us know how it goes :).

Hi Brent,

Thanks - it actually says that it is not possible to set individual titles for the 3 pages mentioned...hmm...but great job finding that post.

I guess it is not that difficult for an expert to make some code to implement or is it ? It is possible to implement your own code on these pages directly in the CMS, so... any ideas ,)

I guess I need to brush up on my Danish

It came up as something completely different in the English translation.

It is a forum where Dandomain users can post ideas on what they should work on in the future...

Which is quite a lot...

I would say this is an instance where you need to go to the client and tell them there CMS is outdated (and sucks) and they need to progress into the current era of web, [UPSELL ALERT]

There is usually a way to code around it if you know your SQL and php or .Net,  Impossible is never usually in a coders vocabulary...

[Wello1234]

Hmmm...you're right - problem is, that I am the client and I'm constantly telling myself to try and find another cms, but with 2 websites with more than 20,000 products etc....its really not just something that can be done easily....

[Wello1234]

I guess....no short  cuts...some easy title tag html thing?...I am for sure more .com than .net...:)) - no programming skills...stopped learning after programming a calculator in Basic on my C64....that was my masterpiece....(!)

Well if you think you have the means to undertake such a migration project then why not, would be a fantastic bit of experience and potentially a good earner.. Just be careful because it could be a big risk if you dont have the resource to do it properly.
