Hi all,

I am trying to insert custome meta description on the home page. Initially I was thinking I can do that manually from the index.php file but it seems different.

Does anyone how to insert meta description only on the home page?

I am using a plugin for the single posts, which are fine. Just need the home page.

Thanks

Something like this:

<?php if ( bb_is_front() ) : ?>

<meta name="description" content="bla bla bla" />

<?php endif; ?>

Hi mr_pelle,

If you want to add meta description only on homepage, then see

“bbpressbb-templateskakumeifront-page.php”

If you want to add in header for all forum, then see

“bbpressbb-templateskakumeiheader.php”

Regards

Thanks. I added this to the header.php and ran some diagnostics.

<meta name=”description” content=”<?php if ( is_single() ) {

single_post_title(”, true);

} else {

bloginfo(‘name’); echo ” – “; bloginfo(‘description’);

}

?>” />

This appears to solve my Tag Description problems, but it creates another.

I get a php error when accessing the forum

Fatal error: Call to undefined function is_single() in /home/xxx/public_html/Forum/bbpress/bb-templates/kakumei/header.php on line 16

Would anyone be so kind as to help identify a work around?
