Use the correct and RECOMMENDED CHMOD for each folder and file
Setting files or folders to a CHMOD of 777 or 707 is only necessary when a script needs to write to that file or directory. All other files should have the following configuration:
Joomla SEO meta tag recommendations
- In the Global settings area of Joomla’s administration panel, insure the fields Global Site Meta Description and Global Site Meta Keywords are empty.
- Change Joomla’s meta tag logic so that Joomla won’t needlessly insert empty tags in a page. The file is
libraries/joomla/document/html/renderer/head.phpand the changes to make are in red. Technical folks may want to download a patch file for version 1.5.// Generate META tags (needs to happen as early as possible in the head) foreach ($document->_metaTags as $type => $tag) { foreach ($tag as $name => $content) {if($content != ''){ // only output tags if they actually have a value - Sean Carlos http://antezeta.com/ if ($type == 'http-equiv') { $strHtml .= $tab.'<meta http-equiv="'.$name.'" content="'.$content.'"'.$tagEnd.$lnEnd; } elseif ($type == 'standard') { // don't output <meta name="robots" content="index, follow" /> as this is too embarassing: its the default for search engines! - Sean Carlos http://antezeta.com/ if($name == 'robots' && $content == 'index, follow' ) { $content = 'index, follow'; // do nothing } else { $strHtml .= $tab.'<meta name="'.$name.'" content="'.str_replace('"',"'",$content).'"'.$tagEnd.$lnEnd; } } } } }$documentDescription = $document->getDescription(); if ($documentDescription) { // only output tags if they actually have a value - Sean Carlos http://antezeta.com/ $strHtml .= $tab.'<meta name="description" content="'.$document->getDescription().'" />'.$lnEnd; }if($document->getGenerator() != '') { // only output tags if they actually have a value - Sean Carlos http://antezeta.com/ $strHtml .= $tab.'<meta name="generator" content="'.$document->getGenerator().'" />'.$lnEnd; }In version 1.6, it isn’t necessary to change the logic which sets the meta description which has already been fixed. - To remove the meta generator tag, it is necessary to add a line of code to the main template file, such as
templates/rhuk_milkyway/index.php<head> <?php $this->setMetaData('generator',''); ?> <jdoc:include type="head" />
Unfortunately these changes need to be reapplied should the Joomla software and/or theme be updated.
