stublackett Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Howdo guys, I'm more of a PHP developer meself, But my mates asked me to help him with some SEO stuff on an ASP site. Looks like its written in C#. All I'm wanting to do is change the "Title" tag of each page. Now I've tried the standard HTML <head> <title>Funky Foto | Event Photography & Portraits | Manchester & Cheshire</title> </head> But it isnt loading it in at all. How do I change the title tag for each individual page. The default.aspx page code is set as follows... Website address is : http://www.funkyfoto.co.uk/ <%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/master/Website.Master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="AboutUs.aspx.cs" Inherits="Web.AboutUs" Title="Funky Foto | Event Photography & Portraits | Manchester & Cheshire | About Us" %> <head> <title>Funky Foto | Event Photography & Portraits | Manchester & Cheshire | About Us</title> </head> <asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="WebsiteContent" runat="server"> <div id="aboutUs"> <div class="text"> <p>Welcome to the new and improved Funky Foto website.

JonnoTheDev Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 There is such a lack of information here to give an answer. However seen as you have posted a tiny part of a template, doesn't the very first line stand out? The bit where it says Title= <%@ Page Language="C#" MasterPageFile="~/master/Website.Master" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="AboutUs.aspx.cs" Inherits="Web.AboutUs" Title="Funky Foto | Event Photography & Portraits | Manchester & Cheshire | About Us" %> Or is that something you have added? You need to figure out the structure of the code and the portion that is generating the page title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what more information I could have provided? I'm looking to change the TITLE tags for each page Looking at your response, The title ="Funky Foto | Event Photography & Portraits | Manchester & Cheshire | About Us" is what I want it to be. But if you look at the website. It hasnt gone through to the page, The page title is simply "Funky Foto" or depending on the seperate page it is "Funky Foto | Page Name" and thats what I'm looking ot modify but having no joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnoTheDev Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Was the original text within that code snippet what is showing on the website right now? If so have you uploaded the file correctly after making changes? Have you attempted to add some simple text into the page just to see if it appears after you have uploaded the file i.e. <div id="aboutUs">test 123 This will give you an idea that you are editing the correct document! You need to find the portion of the script that is responsible for displaying the title element. It is not a one size fits all answer for sites written in ASP.NET. That is why I stated a lack of information. Posting a snippet of a document does not provide any clues. However, I am inclined to believe you are either not uploading the file correctly or are editing the wrong file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewgauger Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Just <script language="javascript"> function changetitle(title){ document.title=title } </script> <body onLoad="changetitle('Funky Foto | ...')"> although may not be good enough for SEO. UNLESS: ~/master/Website.Master overrides the title element I looked into it and it seems that every link appropriately gets the right Funky Foto | Child_name That leads me to believe the title is being pulled from a database or assembled using variables. You are going to have to look deeper into the code, maybe in AboutUs.aspx.cs but this may look like Latin if you don't code in C#. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
