Changing meta in global configuration doesn’t change everything. It was:
The parameter file /templates/ja_uvite/params.ini is unwritable!
<meta http-equiv=”content-type” content=”text/html; charset=utf-8″ />
<meta name=”robots” content=”index, follow” />
<meta name=”keywords” content=”joomla, Joomla” />
<meta name=”description” content=”Joomla! – the dynamic portal engine and content management system” />
<meta name=”generator” content=”Joomla! 1.5 – Open Source Content Management” />
<?php
/*
I was able to change keywords and description. Where do I get rid of the meta name “generator”. The client does not want JOOMLA to come up when people are looking for Carp Cove Press!
<head>
<meta http-equiv=”content-type” content=”text/html; charset=utf-8″ />
<meta name=”robots” content=”index, follow” />
<meta name=”keywords” content=”Carp Cove Press” />
<meta name=”description” content=”Carp Cove Press home of Crossing the Rainbow Bridge” />
<meta name=”generator” content=”Joomla! 1.5 – Open Source Content Management” />

You will need to change the permissions on that file so the script can write to it. Try changing them in your ftp app to 755 and if that fails 777.
So when I change the permissions to make the template itself editable, that is where this tag is located? <meta name=”generator” content=”Joomla! 1.5 – Open Source Content Management” />
The others are located in the global configuration.

That is generated by Joomla itself and not the template. I beleive it is considered bad form to remove it.
HEY! that was sure more fun than googling it myself!!! LOL HOW’D YOU DO THAT!????
I’m going to read some other posts on that, but it looks like on the first one at least it’s not necessarily “bad form” but rather it will just be replaced every time you update. I guess it’s something Joomla wants in there. I certainly have no objection to it. But my client is concerned that people looking for her site will bring up Joomla ads???

Understandable. Good luck with your site.
Hey! thank you! Final say is with the client, always, but I just aim to please.

Simply add this in your template <head></head> tags and it will stick through joomla updates…
<?php $this->setGenerator(‘Anything you want or leave empty’); ?>
Worked for me! You can also put whatever you want in there.
Or you just simply go to your root folder and find configuration.php and replace
var $MetaDesc = 'Joomla! - the dynamic portal engine and content management system';
var $MetaKeys = 'joomla, Joomla';Hope this helps! 😉
