Hi there,
ASSUMPTION: Your query is about the specialpurpose/ecommerce application.
What of the metadata will be required dynamically and what is the dynamic
data you want to get into the meta tags (product description, catalog name,
etc.)? Do you know that?
In a recent post I allready mentioned that: "product.description" will be
the default entry on <META type="description" ...). In the event that you
i18n that info, the spider will event see different languages provided it is
able to follow your locale-switch.
If you need to change anything for static (i.e. same META tag on any page
displayed) or want to add other than the default mentioned above, I am
afraid you'll need to get "into the mud".
In that case, check the Screen definitions and the FreeMarker templates.
The ecommerce default HTML header sits at:
*specialpurpose/ecommerce/webapp/ecommerce/includes/headerHead.ftl*
Beware, the use of THEMES may overwrite this header. If you are using themes
for your layout (and not the ecommerce default theme), make sure you review
*themes/<THEME>/includes/header.ftl*
Some do overwrite, some don't as far as I can see. There may be a general
rule that ecommerce themese will need to overwirte. As I have not been using
themes so far, maybe someone on the list can elucidate.
Regards
Carsten
