Have you checked your Site name and Site Description located in your Admin Panel?

by Sanket August 17th 2011, 6:01 am

Which place are you exactly talking about? Please post a screenshot.

yeah i am not sure either?

by Guest August 17th 2011, 8:09 am

Sure here we go

Spoiler:

what you want it to say (Forum Design), why would it do that there. thats only showing you the link in the tab.

Here place this at the very top of your overall_ header tempalte

Hit save, then be sure to go back to the template again and click the green + publish icon.

Code:: <html> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="content-type"> <title>Forum Design</title> </head> <body </body> </html>

by Guest August 17th 2011, 8:54 am

no kirk, that doesn't do anything and why would i do that when it should have been say it itself.

Like FM have ''Free Forum: Support Forum of Forumotion Users''

Did you change it here

Administration Panel>>General>>Forum>>Forum Address ?

That get nothing to do with it xD Wink

by **SLGray** August 17th 2011, 9:16 am

It does if you want to change the address in the browser tab.

by kirk August 17th 2011, 9:39 am

Well i tested it and it worked for me, but that will have the same title for each page.

Did you edit anything else in your overall header before?

check and see you still have this in your header template.
it will be not far down from the top of the template.

Code:: <meta name="title" content="{SITENAME_TITLE}{PAGE_TITLE}" />

If you do not see that in there, then delete the template and it will set it back to it's default.. but make sure if you added anything else in there, that you save it fist.

And what you have in your screen shot, thats for search engines and should not have anything to do with your problem.

I have to check a few more things.
In you main configuration do you have your forum title site description and favacon set?

something is defiantly a lil screwy.
becuase when click you source, it shows as it should.
llok inbetween the title tags

Code:: !DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr" id="min-width" lang="en" xml:lang="en" ><head><div id="color-stripes"></div><title>Forum Design</title>

but i have to analyze all this more
I will have to try some things on my test forum. i did few things already but cant tell what it could be yet.. i am hoping it's just something silly i am missing, if not we may have to get a tech to look into it.

slg wrote:It does if you want to change the address in the browser tab.

yeah that and the site description to.

the meta tag,promotion search engine thing where he is should have nothing to do with it.
Because i dont have anything set for them on my test forums and all mine come up as they should.

so either the template is missing something, or something.. dunno yet i have to try more things.. odd one.

info added

oh and all his sections come up like that,
So i would start by resenting the over all template first?

by Guest August 17th 2011, 9:49 am

well kirk, now is the default template and it doesn't work... bwi

as you can see.

by kirk August 17th 2011, 10:18 am

Well i know it has nothing to do with what is in your screen shot.
Because i still have my title and meta tags set up on forum successors forum when it was a musicians forum, so the title and tags in there are all musician and i have a bunch of other music related stuff as well. and all my pages come up as they should be.. so it's not that.

And ok so you reset your template and still get the same thing.
Ok good. so now we know it's not that, i mean we have to trouble shoot my friend, we are not miracle workers.

Now did you go and check your site name, description etc..
I dont see how this will make a difference but be sure it's set up.

I think this may have to be passed to a pro-admin/tech.iI am still fiddling with a few things on my test forumS, In the mean time lets see if any other staff or members reply with a solution or suggestions and if not then it will have to be passed along to pro-admin and or tech request.

Oh you can always log in to your forums utilities and back it up a day or two before the problem started, that should fix it, however, you may lose some new post that have recently been posted, So thats up to you if you want to do that or not?

by Guest August 17th 2011, 2:20 pm

ok then I'll wait for pro-admin/tech and see what they can do.

by Russel August 17th 2011, 4:35 pm

Or maybe try to synchronize your forum. If not then, lets wait for the pro admin/tech like what kirk posted above.

by MrMario August 17th 2011, 6:28 pm

Please go to Configuration in General and change the forum name and description.

by Guest August 17th 2011, 7:07 pm

I don't have anything on the Site name only on the Site description...

by kirk August 17th 2011, 11:34 pm

Tony M wrote:I don't have anything on the Site name only on the Site description...

well there you have it.
That is what we have bin telling you to try

Put it there and see if it makes a difference.
To me it dont explain why the other sections would not show, but at least try it, then if a no go then we will have to get a tech.

because i dont have nothing there on my Forum successors Forum. But yet all sections you go to the tiles come up.. so i am thinking this is for a tech.

But please first try what mario and myself had said.

by Guest August 18th 2011, 2:59 pm

kirk, I have done everything but nothing changes so if you would like to have a look for yourself then i can give you the login account by pm.

by kirk August 18th 2011, 7:49 pm

i am just going to mark and send this for a tech/pro-admin to take a look at.
something dont seem to be adding up to me, it's a odd one?

by Ahmedvirus August 18th 2011, 8:52 pm

You may have the amendment on a template overall_header Or similar
Make sure again the next
AP/General/Forum promotion/Search engines/ Homepage title :.....etc

by Guest August 19th 2011, 12:00 pm

by Guest August 19th 2011, 2:12 pm

The problem is in this script: http://forum-design.forumotion.com/11870.js
If you remove the script, it should be normal again. Smile

by Guest August 19th 2011, 2:44 pm

Not really lol do you know what that script is for...

by Guest August 19th 2011, 2:52 pm

Lol, i tested on my forum and that was the problem.

by Guest August 19th 2011, 3:02 pm
