metatags.php. Just play with the variable snad you'll see how it works very quickly. Do a backup just in case you mess up!

Thanks !

So are you saying that I should put my own title where it says "TITLE" and HEADING_TITLE?.....

"
Code:
define('META_TAG_TITLE', TITLE . PRIMARY_SECTION . HEADING_TITLE . $web_site_tagline); "

I know this is dumb but I have never done this before....
apprecite your help


Put 'TITLE' first, then "HEADING_TITLE" second.

This is part of my metatags file:

<?php
// FILE: meta_tags.php
// USE : This file controls the title, meta description,
//       and meta keywords of every page on your web site.
//       See the install docs for instructions.

// Define Primary Section Output
  define('PRIMARY_SECTION', ' : ');

// Define Secondary Section Output
  define('SECONDARY_SECTION', ' ');

// Define Tertiary Section Output
  define('TERTIARY_SECTION', ' ');

  // Optional customization options for each language
  switch ($languages_id) {
  // English language
  case '1':
    //Extra keywords that will be outputted on every page
    $mt_extra_keywords = 'all my extra keywords are placed here';
	//Descriptive tagline of your web site
	$web_site_tagline = TERTIARY_SECTION . 'the description on the title bar after my site name is placed here';
	break;

As I said in my last post, copy the original file and play with it. That way if you really screw up you can delete your copy and rename your copy file back to metatags.php
