I have developed the plugin AutoMeta for K2 to implement this requirement and more...

With this plugin, you can use extra fields, item tags, item title, category name in meta keywords and description.

What about adding this lines to robots.txt file....

Disallow: /tag/
Disallow: /blog/
Disallow: /search/


At least you are blocking some duplicate urls from indexing.... I think....

Extra Fields more Columns...

Category: English K2 Community

Hello,
i am new to the community, not new to joomla ;)

I have to admit that K2 is an excellent tool that keeps things organized.

I create a website that is about Heat and Cool Systems. There are a lot of categories and of course a lot of items (products) inside them. Every item (product) has specifications like the Tank Capacity, Working Autonomy etc. So far so good...

A lot of these items (products) has different versions. That is to say, there is An Item that has 3 models. First model 10KW, second model 20KW and the third one 30KW.

We are thinking that would be better to have one item (product) and having the Extra Fields (as specifications) in four columns like the example below.

Specifications10KW20KW30KW
Tank Capacity (Kg)405060
Working Autonomy (h)506070
Voltage (Volt)220220220

Is this a way to accomplished that, using extra fields of course, in oder to avoid building an HTML table in Content area...

Can't edit tags at frontend. jquery? was created by Mk

Can't edit tags at frontend. jquery?

Category: English K2 Community

Hello everybody! i guess this appeared after upgrading from 2.5.7 to 2.6.1 but i found out now that it's not working.

I have K2 2.6.5 on joomla 2.5.9. While in the backend everything works perfect at the frontend i can't edit the tags of an item. Either i use free tagging system or selection based i can not add any tags or remove them. I press the X to remove a tag or the buttons "add" "remove" and nothing happens. I'm trying to see in firebug if there's any javascript code there but it's empty:

<ul class="tags"> <li class="tagAdded">MYTAG <span class="tagRemove" title="Click to remove tag">x</span> <input type="hidden" value="MYTAG" name="tags[]"> </li> <li class="tagAdd"> <input type="text" id="search-field"> </li> <li class="clr"></li> </ul>

There should be some javascript in the first two <li> to remove or add a new tag but there is not, any ideas?

Using K2 fields as metadata in Head

Category: English K2 Community

To add. I think this might need to be done by a php include of the instructions K2 uses to define where the fields are in the database.

Firstly I'm not sure where the instructions are (/www/components/com_k2/helpers possibly?)

Secondly I'm not sure how to include this info in the head tag. I'm very new to php

I think it might be something like include_once ('/K2 INSTRUCTIONS FILE.php')

Will post if I get further

Using K2 fields as metadata in Head

Category: English K2 Community

Hi again,

Second post in 24hrs!

What I've been trying to do is use K2's fields (title, tags, image, etc.) to create extra metadata fields.

I did originally put the new tags in item.php which worked perfectly... apart from it didn't put them in the <head> tag on the page.

Now I've solved that by putting them into the head section of the template this means that I cannot call K2 fields in this way.

 I think I've fixed this issue.
 
 Quite obviously I can't add the <head> tags into item.php. I don't even know what I was thinking.
 
 They must be added to the template wherever it pulls its <head> from.
 
 This has created a further issue for me that any 'echo $item->' of K2 fields does not work in the template.
 
 I think this is a separate issue so I'll post a new topic.
 
 Hope this can help others.

I am afraid that at the moment the only way to add many videos in one K2 item is to add video tags inside the item's content.

Adding Head Tags in item.php

Category: English K2 Community

Hi there,

I'm fairly new to K2 but very new to the forums here. Firstly can I say what a great component!

Secondly I'm having a bit of trouble adding a <head> tag into item.php

You might wonder why I'm adding it to item.php and not the template. Well I'm trying to add all of the Facebook and Meta tags into item. This might also help those who are trying to do this as I've done most of the hard work getting the parameters from K2.

 How to search for multiple K2 tags? 
 
 Category: English K2 Community 
 
 Hey all,
 
 I have this animated tag cloud on the site I'm running that requires me to input the urls manually. I want the tags to be broad and incorporate multiple terms like "sustainability" would search the K2 tags for anything with "solar," "renewables," and "energy."
 
 The url for a K2 tag menu item is this:
 index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&layout=tag&tag=scifi&task=tag
 
 Does anyone know how to change this so I can get a search results page with multiple tags?

Best way to use K2 Categories

Category: English K2 Community

William,

Excellent! Very helpful.

I'm thinking I'll use the "location" of story as the categories, since the articles will only fit into one of those and that determines where it appears on the homepage. And then I'll use tags for all the rest of the different organization elements.

Thanks!

Best way to use K2 Categories

The default behavior of k2 is for an item to belong only to one category and use tags to relate items from different categories.
There is an addin for k2 that allows an item to belong to multiple categories

You might take a look at gavicks world news template and see how they have things arranged as they support k2 in a newspaper type template

Change the Displaying items by tag results page?

Category: English K2 Community

Figured it out myself.
To anyone who ends up need this particular information:


The file I got into to make the changes necessary was in /components/com_k2/templates/default/tag.php (but I used an override instead. You should do the same.)

I changed line 80 from this:
<?php echo $item->introtext; ?>
to this:
<?php echo K2HelperUtilities::wordLimit($item->introtext, 100); ?>

This automatically stopped the result list from displaying the images within the article as well, but left the item image. Which is what I wanted.

From there it was css work.

Strange search results using K2 Tools and no tags was created by powder

Strange search results using K2 Tools and no tags

Category: English K2 Community

Hi all

On our website we use joomla 2.5.9, K2 2.6.5 version.

When we us the k2 tools module and use it as a search box no results will appear when searching for a tag.

We have several produts that are tagged with the product number and name. As an example

1. Productpage with the tag Bega 8645
akb-lighting.no/component/k2/item/13-historisk-museum

2. Choose on the sidebar on the right side "Produktsøk" and search for 8645
Then you vil get only 1 hit, but in the tag manager in K2 there is 4 projects that are tagged wit this numer 8645

3. When you press the product number in the tag cloud 8645 you will get 3 projects with this products
akb-lighting.no/led-lys-prosjekter/ostlandet

The only thing i have found is that when you insert a tag: Bega 8645 it will be translated into this url:
component/k2/itemlist/tag/Bega%208645

Is this the problem when searching, that the space between the name Bega and the numer 8645
will add %2 to the url??

Does anyone have a suggestion on what this problem could be?

Regards Powder

K2 SEO issue - Can it be fixed?

Hi Mike,

I have been looking into this issue myself and even went down the route of employing someone in htaccess coding skills to rewrite the URL.

After spending too many hours on this I now have it working.

  1. Back up your site using Akeeba Backup
  2. Download the latest version of K2 which is currently K2_v2.6.5.zip.
  3. Remember, if you have made any changes to the K2 CSS files without creating an override they will be written over. So keep any necessary files.
  4. Install K2_v2.6.5.zip via Extensions Manager
  5. Now go to Components / K2
  6. Click the Parameters button top right
  7. A window opens up - click the Advanced tab
  8. Scroll down to Advanced SEF Settings
  9. Enable advanced SEF for K2 URL's - Yes
  10. Use the item ID in the URL - No

[img size=74kb]www.pixelfire.com.au/images/k2-sef-settings.png[/img]

Save and close.

These settings have worked for me. I wish I had only upgraded my K2 before spending too many bloody hours on this issue. Oh well - it's working fine now and it's great.

Don't forget, if you have a few Items that people access through a category listing you will need to update the redirects for their URL's which I now need to do so I'll have to disable the new SEF until I have a full list of redirects I need to set up.

Example URL change:
www.pixelfire.com.au/website-and-graphic-design-blog/item/121-top-10-joomla-extensions

Now becomes:
www.pixelfire.com.au/website-and-graphic-design-blog/top-10-joomla-extensions

Also this guy at the bottom of this URL has some good ideas for avoiding duplication of URL using the No Numbers Sourcerer and the rel="canonical" tag. It's worth a look.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
Neil.
