If you have questions about using mojoPortal, you can post them here.

You may want to first review our site administration documentation to see if your question is answered there.

Re: How to change the canonical link tag

Regarding this:

"You could put verification meta tags in the layout.master file of your skin but I recommend using the alternate verification where you just put a file in the root of the web. To me this is better than adding junk meta data to the content."

I dont have ftp access to a site, i only have access to the mojo cms part of it. How do I upload the webmaster verification files using the Cms alone? There is a 'File Manager' option in the root. But there is no file visible named or called layout.master in it.

I also want to be able to add a custom meta tag of my own saying something like this:

<meta name="SEO-By" content="My name and email address">.

I would like this meta to appear in all the pages of the site.

Re: How to change the canonical link tag

The skins used by the site are located at /Data/Sites/[SiteID]/skins and each skin is basically a sub folder beneath that. Typically [SiteID] is 1 for a single site installation.

Each skin has a layout.master file. You could download this file using the File Manager, edit it locally and then upload it.

So the path will be /Data/Sites/[SiteID]/skins/[skinname]/layout.master

[skinname] can be determined from Administration > Site Settings

be careful, if you put some malformed tag it can break the layout.master and in this case mojoPortal will fallback to a failsafe layout.master file and log an error.

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: How to change the canonical link tag

Thanks I was able to alter/edit the layout.master file to add custom meta site verification and signature tags.
