------------------------ TITLES -----------------------------------

This is the proposed generation of titles. All the proposed values would be defaults in your installation and you would be able to change each via a config like this:

"{PAGETITLE} -=- {PAGECAT} -=- {SITENAME}" (without quotes)

Basically you could reorder them how you would want, but the defaults would be the best SEO wise. This is based on the idea that the user coming from the search engines is not looking for you but for what you have to offer on the site (if he was searching for you he would have typed in your domain name).

PAGES

{PAGETITLE} - {CATEGORY} | {SITENAME}
{PAGETITLE}, {PAGE} - {CATEGORY} | {SITENAME}

LISTS

<custom text> {CATEGORY}, {PAGE} | {SITENAME}

(example: "Best recipes for {CATEGORY}, Download drivers for {CATEGORY}")

FORUMS

{TOPIC}, {PAGE} - {SECTION} | {SITENAME}
{SECTION}, {PAGE} | {SITENAME}

EXTRA / CUSTOM URL TITLES

You would be able to input a list of URLs into a textarea and custom titles for them. Example:

hxxp://www.site.com/plug.php?e=contactus,Use this form to send us an email

It would then use this title on the URL chosen.

------------------------ METAS -----------------------------------

PAGES

Metas are generated from the description field, if it's empty it takes the first 250 characters from page text, does a sed_cc and strip_tags on it.

LISTS

Taken from category description, if it's empty create a configable sentence eg. "Interesting pages about {CATEGORY} like {PAGE1} and {PAGE2}"

FORUM TOPICS

Taken from first post, the first 250 characters, cleaned up

FORUM SECTIONS

Taken from description, if not create a configable sentence eg. "Interesting discussions about {SECTION} like {TOPIC1} and {TOPIC2}"

FORUM

Configable description

----------------------------------------------

Ideas welcome.
