    Media Reviews

    For those Network members that provide front end login access to their member organizations or for those site administrators who enter media links themselves via the Media Reviews tool on the control panel, this page provides a complete digest of all those links.

    This new feature is a great way to provide added value to your users, your member/constituent organizations, and your media partners.

     

    Meta Tags

    How do I add meta tags to my site?

    • Login to your admin control panel
    • Click on the Tools tab
    • Click the Meta Tags link
    • Click the Add button

    Available Fields:

    1) URL field: Type the URL page you want to add meta tags to.

    Example: If you want to add meta tags for the Theatre category page, type "event/cat/theatre" in the URL field.

    All Network websites should have at least one meta tag set up for the home page "index.php" - if you do not see a meta tag entry for "index.php" please contact networksupport@artsopolis.com.

    2) Title field: The title tag specifies the title of your Web page and can be found at the top of your browser in the title bar and should be kept between 60 - 90 characters in length (Google currently displays only approximately 65 characters of the title).

    3) Description field: Give a brief description of your page in this tag. Bear in mind that this description (or part of it) will be displayed in the search engine results so try to make sure you phrase it in such a way that the person searching can tell at a glance that the user has found the correct page for his search.

    4) Keyword field: Type specific keywords that pertain to this category page.
