In case of SEO it would be better if you can add meta description, keywords, title for each language separately. Can you tell me how this can be done.

Hi there,

If you are creating a multilingual web-site, then surely you will have meta data fields for a certain item in every language for you. For example, you will have a “Home” menu item in your default English menu and “<Home-In-Your-Other-Language> for another language(s).

Just enter the menu item title and its meta data into the respective fields for every language and you are good to go.

Hope this helps,

Alex

Hi,

Thanks but that is not what I mean. In Ja jobboard you can add standard meta data for job posting page for instance. Default is Job posting for {company name}, but I can not change this for different languages. I can offcourse use a title for each menu item but than I can’t add the copmpany name.

To change page title for Job posting page, please follow steps below:
– Open the file: components/com_jajobboard/views/jajobs/view.html.php

– Find the code snippet below:
[PHP]case ‘jaform’:
$this->edit(false);

if (!$page_title) {
$page_title = JText::_(‘JOB_FORM’);
}

$document->setTitle($page_title.’ – ‘.$config->sitename);
break;[/PHP]

– And replace it with:
[PHP]case ‘jaform’:
$this->edit(false);

if (!$page_title) {
$page_title = JText::_(‘JOB_FORM’);
}

$document->setTitle($page_title);
break;
[/PHP]

It helps to remove site name from page title of this page.

Hi, thanks but that is not what I mean. I need to add a meta description, page title in several languages. As for now I can only use 1 language instead of 3.

For example:
Job listing page Dutch: – Bla die bla die bla
Job listing page English – Job listing page

I can offourse use a menu item and make a title there but than all the meta title are disabled and even with a job it gives me the menu title of the job listing page. Because the system in multi language it has to have the possibility to make multi language title for jobs, job listing etc.

<blockquote>Because the system in multi language it has to have the possibility to make multi language title for jobs, job listing etc.</blockquote>

Actually, there are some options to implement multilingual system, E.g:
– User will enter content of all languages for each item (the way you mentioned)
– Or user need to clone item to each language, that means each item is specified to display in specific language (it is the approach that Joomla and JA Jobboard component support). So, if the Job is configured to display in English only, you only need to enter its title in English, and it will not display in other languages. If it is configured for all languages, you need to accept the fact that one title will display in all languages.

Ok, but that is only for jobs what about the employers page, resume list, etc. That are not pages set for a specific language and also there it is not possible to add a specific meta text.

Please have a look at Jobboard configuration >> Meta data tab, you can see that Jobboard already supports to configure meta data for Profile page and resume page.

Yes, I know, but still it is not possible for different languages. For example:

Job list EN: Job list page
Job list NL: Vacature lijst

When I use the language menu item with page title it overrides also the job title page.

For Example:
Job list EN: Job list page
Job EN: Job list page instead of Title job

I just checked with our dev team, to define different page title for each language, you need to enter Language key in page title field, and define this language text in language files of each language.

For example with Job Listing page, in Page Title field you can enter this language key: JA_JOBBOARD_JOB_LISTING_PAGE_TITLE

and then, define language text as follows in each language files
JA_JOBBOARD_JOB_LISTING_PAGE_TITLE=”Job List Page”

So you can translate this text for each language as you want.

Hi,

Thank you, I have tried this but it does not seems to work. It just shows: JA_JOBBOARD_JOB_LISTING_PAGE_TITLE as an page title. I have added in EN and Dutch language file (jajobboard.ini) the lines JA_JOBBOARD_JOB_LISTING_PAGE_TITLE=”Job listing page” and JA_JOBBOARD_JOB_LISTING_PAGE_TITLE=”Vacature lijst”

Do I have to add it to more language files or what?

Hello,

Sorry for missing step, you need open the file:
components/com_jajobboard/helper/jafunctions.class.php

Find the code snippet below:
[PHP]function replaceContentDocument($define, $jobs) {
$config = new JConfig();[/PHP]

And replace it with:
[PHP]function replaceContentDocument($define, $jobs) {
$config = new JConfig();
$define = JText::_($define);[/PHP]

I have applied it for your dev site, and custom title works now, as you can see it here

OK, thank but how can I do this for register page, if I use this string it shows the string instead of text: JA_JOBBOARD_REGISTER_PAGE=”Register at”

I just tried to update title of Register Employer/Job Seeker page with solution above, and the title still displays as expected.

In the title field, please enter langauge key online (remove {SITETITLE}):
JA_JOBBOARD_REGISTER_PAGE

And in the language file, you need adding site name in language text:

JA_JOBBOARD_REGISTER_PAGE=”Register at {SITE_TITLE}”

I think this works but there is another problem. When I fill in meta description it is not showing in the page and the keywords are showing at content field. Below what it shows.

<meta http-equiv=”content-type” content=”text/html; charset=utf-8″ />
<meta name=”keywords” content=”vakantiewerk, buitenland, bijbanen, stages, toerisme, recreatie, sport, evenementen, seizoenwerk, seizoenswerk” />
<title>Aanmelden bij Seizoenwerk</title>
