  • Help! Can't get rid of "No Title"

    Just uploaded to a client site... awesome! However, I cannot get rid of the "No Title", even though I went back and added that to the search, re-performed the search, and re-uploaded the files again...
    What am I doing wrong?
    Here is what the search page shows....

    1. No title
    Barb and Patty's Butcher Palace, located in Mentor, Ohio is a true Authentic Old Fashion Meat Market; Old World Specialties from Europe, Ohio Farm...
    ... Chops- 5 oz. each 8 Boneless Chicken Breast Halves- 4-5 oz. each ... Sliced Bacon 15 lbs. Farm Fresh Chicken (whole chickens cut up) Specialty Package ...

    You need to add a title in the HEAD section of that file:

    EX:
    <head>
    .
    .
    <title>Barb and Patty's Butcher Palace</title>
    .
    .
    </head>


    Good luck,
    Leon

      title

      Hey Leon: Thanks for answering so fast.. All the pages in the site already have titles... i.e. for the index page...
      <meta name="title" content="Barb and Pattys Butcher Palace - Mentor, Ohio">
      Is it due to the "meta name"?

        He means add the HTML tag <title>The Name of Your Web page goes here</title>
        None of your web pages has the title tag.
        He wasn't referring to the <meta name> tag.

        Here is an Example:
        <html>
        <head>
        <title>The Name Of Your Web Page Goes Here</title>
        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
        <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 6.0">
        <meta name="title" content="Barb and Pattys Butcher Palace - Mentor, Ohio - Fresh Pork">
        <meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
        <meta name="description" content="Barb and Patty's Butcher Palace, located in Mentor, Ohio is a true Authentic Old Fashion Meat Market; Old World Specialties from Europe, Ohio Farm Fresh Chicken, Steaks, Chops, Roasts, and more!

          thank you

          Do I have to redo the search and re-upload all the files or will it find it?
          You are awesome Leon!!!

            Leon and Bill were both right, your page was lacking a proper <title> ... </title> tag. Your "meta title" tag is not a recognized method of adding titles to a web page - in fact, even Internet Explorer will not recognize it and it will not show it in the title bar of the browser window.

            And yes, you will need to re-index and re-upload the search files. Or if you have saved your configuration and index files correctly, you can try to use the "Incremental Update" feature so that Zoom will find the changed file and only index that file (you'll still need to re-upload the search files however). Please take a look at the Users Guide chapter on Incremental indexing before proceeding. We generally recommend it for more advanced users and very large sites only. If your site is not too large, we would recommend re-indexing completely (as it provides the most compact and optimized index files).
