Just installed the Video Filter module with my new clean Drupal 6.1 website. Showed up fine in Site Building>module where I enabled it. Also in permissions. But no administrator tasks to set. Isn't showing up under create content or as an option under page or story. Can't find where to add my YouTube URL.
Checked help files, but no answer there.

I'm surprised that the aliases are still there after deleting the node, but you can delete them individually through:

Site Building > URL Aliases > Delete Aliases

or if you have a bunch, there is a way to deal with them in SQL here:

http://drupal.org/node/195120

Good luck,
Kristen

For each content type, you have to make sure to check the checkbox:

"Allow editing of meta tags"

on the content type settings form, e.g.

http://[domain]/admin/content/node-type/forum

If you want the aliases to be updated, then you shouldn't use "Do nothing. Leave the old alias intact" because it will leave the alias to whatever was first created.

If you haven't gone live, you can temporarily set it to "create new alias, delete old alias" and then use the admin/content/node page to update all the aliases in bulk so they are all current.

Then switch the pathauto update setting to whatever is appropriate for your site (e.g. do nothing, or update and redirect).

Good luck,

Wow, that was an easy to get started on Drupal SEO - thanks for putting a list of all the best modules in one place. Really appreciate it.

What Drupal site isn't slow?

I vaguely recall trying to put it in the header before and it not working and it *not* working, but am not 100% positive about that. It depends on the theme, but it should really work in either spot for any proper theme.

You can put it in the footer if you are using any contrib theme because the theme will print out $footer and it will end up there. It doesn't matter if you have anything else in the footer.

If you created your own theme, you really need to make sure to do:

print $footer;
print $closure;

in the correct spots or some modules will not work (e.g. admin_menu).

Good luck,
Kristen

Good website

i hav jus gone through that its nice and thanks for this

I did the same test about 3 months ago as I was curious whether google would track the redirect in analytics. I started with the main site, but then it got too confusing because 1 sites analytics changed however the redirect numbers didnt change in line with the redirect. How did you go in the end?

ya i believe.. Drupal is SEO friendly.. Drupal component with the help of a few modules, makes it easy for you to do the things that tend to result in a higher rate of search engine success. In other words, Drupal makes it easy to practice good SEO.

How can I make page that will act as a first page which means that I can add desired content on the way that I do it with "promoted to front page" in publishing options. Is there any options where I can make other option "promoted to second page" or something similar with same results? Please help and sorry if I post it in a wrong section!
Thanks :)

Hi,
I'm new to drupal, and have learned a lot from your site. Thanks for the great info.

I recently took over the SEO for a site, and gave aliases to the URLs as per your instructions here and for pathauto.

the new URLs are www.mysite/name (without the "content", which I removed from the URLs manually.

When I check the new url in http://www.searchenginepromotionhelp.com/m/http-server-response/code-che..., I still get a 200 code.

Any tips?

Thanks so much for your help,

Brian
