    What version of 68 Classifieds are you running?
    4.2.4

    What template are you using?
    Sigma

    Please describe in detail the issue you are having:

    I hope I haven't missed anything but... I don't seem to have any meta tags, at least when I'm using the reporting tool I use for everything:

    Meta Tag Analyzer

    Just says I have nothing for Title or Description...

    Has this been seen before?

    Thanks

    Don't know why you would need some special tool to see you're meta tags. Just look at the source code which every browser supports.

    Apparently that tool doesn't work properly, because you do have a title (which btw is not a meta tag and is a required to be a valid (X)HTML page), you do have meta tags in your pages. The title is also what shows at the top of your browser window as the window title.

    Also just an FYI, you might consider honing down your keywords as you have a ton of them. Although Google doesn't use keywords any longer for ranking, it does dock you for overuse and/or irrelevant keywords on pages that the content doesn't match the keywords (As documented in the webmaster tools guidelines). the number of keywords that you are using would be considered keyword spamming and will get docked because of it in search engine rankings.

    Thanks...

    I use it to simply analyse what I have in place is accurate... that's all. I just thought it was a bit weird that it couldn't pick anything up...
