First, your message made me realize that it would
make sense to include
the following meta tag in mainhtml.pm:
<meta name="description"
content="$rlmain::ringdesc" />
That would provide meta *description* info at the
list pages, including
next/prev 5. Maybe you have already done that; I
just did in the
original program.
Ya, had done that.
At the same time, such a meta tag would be redundant
in admhtml.pm and
mailhtml.pm, since the admin pages are password
protected.
As regards adding fields, the program does not
include any preparations
for making it easier. In orther words, we are
talking about program
modifications.
Lot of work and thought will have to go in then :)
The starting point for adding new fields would be
two arrays in
rlmain.pm, where the fields are defined:
@rlmain::ringnames and
@rlmain::sitenames. As regards a ring keywords
field, to be able to
enter the keywords, you would also need to modify
'sub form', 'sub
appearanceform', and possibly 'sub validation' in
ring.pm.
Thanks will look at this.
I may be wrong, but I have a feeling that the search
engine robots
typically don't grab the meta keywords information
nowadays.
Accordingly, I doubt that this modification would be
worthwhile.
Ya, 99% search engines dont require it these days.
But was just thinking of making two-three mods. One of
them will be select category mod. In which we can
assign a category to each ring ;) This mod and vote
ring/site mod will make the script almost complete.
Since I am not well versed the script yet, anyone who
helps will the important places to watch out for would
be a gr8 help. reading 200+kb of source code aint an
easy job ;)
I suppose that you have a separate program for
handling votes and
rating, and that you plan to make it update sites.db
with that information.
Presently I am thinking of building one inside
RingLink itself.
If you would decide to make the modifications,
Jayant, I'd appreciate if
you let us know via this list about your
experiences.
ya, sure!
