V4.2.x Installing SEO module

[smarta +]

Hi

I am trying to install the SEO v2.4 module

there are 2 things in the install instructions I am not sure of

1. it says

1. Open the file templates/xxx/layout.tpl where xxx is your template directory
and add this line above the style sheet:

<base href="{$smarty.const.URL}/" />

I cannot find any reference to stylesheet in the layout.tpl file for the Omega-blue template

this is the code from the file layout.tpl

PHP Code:

{if $smarty.server.SERVER_PORT == '443'} {else} {/if} {literal} {/literal} {$header} {modulehook function="tpl_layout_head" options=""}
{if $templateSw}
{include file=$templateSw}
{/if} {if $listingfilter} {include file=$listingfilter_template} {/if} {include file="inc/user_nav.tpl"}
{include file="inc/logo.tpl"}
{include file="inc/bookmarks.tpl"}
{include file="inc/menu.tpl"}
{include file=$body}

{foreach from=$left_col item=row} {include file=$row.template} {/foreach}


{modulehook function="tpl_layout_footer" options=""}
{include file="inc/footer.tpl"} 


2. it says

2. Rename the file located in the upload folder from 1.htaccess to .htaccess

but it does not say where to upload the file to

can anyone help me out

You do not need to do anything special to the layout.tpl file at all. Those lines are already in it within the head section.

{if $smarty.server.SERVER_PORT == '443'}
<base href="{$smarty.const.URLS}/" />
{else}
<base href="{$smarty.const.URL}/" />
{/if}


You put the .htaccess file in the root directory.

Put the .htaccess file in top directory of your classifieds installation directory.

sorry - just a clarification if you would

do you mean that the required code is in another part of the page/site code (ie the header) so it does not need to be added the the layout.tpl file ?

is that correct as I can't see the required code in the layoput.tpl file itself

I repeat: lines 10-14

That means YOU DO NOTHING. You don't need to edit anything.
