How UPDATE all pages with the DWT without changing my <title> pgs

U

Uncle Gary

The DWT templates include TITLE and META name sections of code within the
DWT. When I edit FrontPage <title> on the individual pages of the site, they
are all CHANGED when I ATTACH them to the site DWT.

Is there any way to be able to UPDATE all pages with the DWT without
changing ALL of my <title> in the pages to its default NAME?

When you create a DWT the <title> tag is normally placed in an
editable region. This means that any <title> tag in an attached page
will replace the default tag in the DWT.

To do this, and accommodate other <meta tags, in code view:
<head>
<!-- #BeginEditable "DocTitle" -->
<title>Title here</title>
<!-- #EndEditable -->

<!-- #BeginEditable "DocDescription" -->
<meta name="description" content="Description here">
<!-- #EndEditable -->

<!-- #BeginEditable "DocKeywords" -->
<meta name="keywords" content="keywords here">
<!-- #EndEditable -->

</head>

Or amalgamate the separate editable regions:

<head>
<!-- #BeginEditable "DocProp" -->
<title>Title here</title>
<meta name="description" content="Description here">
<meta name="keywords" content="keywords here">
<!-- #EndEditable -->

</head>

Ronx: I apologize for not being an html programmer as I live, or more often
die in the design mode. (I'm 60 so shut up! :) When I converted my sites to
DWTs from shared boarders, the <title> portion of code is in the DWT
protected area.

Are you saying that I could move CODE for the <title> to the beginning of
the editable region box and it would not intefere with my text portions and
would it be seen in that location by the search engines?

No.
Create a new editable region in the head section of the page, and
place the <title> in it.
Then update all pages attached to the DWT. The <title> tag in each
page will not be affected by that in the DWT.
This would have to be done in Code view.

Sorry: Create a new editable region in the head section of the page, and
place the <title> in it. Do you mean in the DWT "page" or the individual site
pages? All my pages are linked to one DWT.

THIS IS THE CODE IN MY DWT HEAD. I
<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

<title>I inserted a new editable region here</title>

<meta name="Microsoft Theme" content="concrete 1011, default">
</head>

<body>

I WANT THIS AS MY TITLE ON MY DEFAULT HOME PAGE:
nuclear energy health hazards about nuclear

advantages and disavantages of nuclear energy

WHEN I PUT THIS IN MY DEFAULT PAGE TITLE AND UPDATE THE DWT IT ZEROS IT OUT
TO:

<title></title>

I don't want the DWT TITLE propagated to my regular site pages?

Sorry: Finally I saw that the code was doing. I just copied the code you sent
into the title section on the DWT and saw the results on the site pages. All
of the protected code sections are show a TAN background and the ADDED
editable area was ready for action. Thanks
