Meta keywords

[pschievink]

Hi,

Is it possible to increase the number caracters for keywords for the site?
I've not enough room for my keywords to put in.

Please let me know,

Are you referring to the size of the input field or is mysql trimming it to a certain length?

[pschievink]

I don't know what you mean exactly but what I do know is that
what I put in the admin section doesn't show all the keywords in the
frontsite.
When you look at the source of the site you can see what I mean.....
The keywords are suddenly cutoff....
example:

<meta name="Keywords" content="paarden,pony's,veulens,paard,pony veulen,merrie,hengst,fries,arabier,paardenverkoop. net,andalusier,anglo-arabier,paarden verkoop, paarden te koop,verkoop paarden, horse, horses, horses for sale, free ads, pferde zu verkauf, pferde, pferd, marathonwagen, p" />

Eventhough I've given more keywords in the admin section.....

I understand. This is because of the field type in the database. If you open the admin table and view keywords you should be able to change it to something like varchar(255) or something higher.

Hi Erik,

Could you be more specific in means of where and how?
I don't have a doctoral degree in scripting..

Thanx...

If you have something like phpmyadmin installed you can run a query like this:

ALTER TABLE `class_admin` CHANGE `keywords` `keywords` VARCHAR( 455 ) NULL DEFAULT NULL

Just copy and paste it into the sql window.

Thanx Erik,

That worked like a charm....
