Suggestion - Metatag&Site description in the admin bac

[opaz]

Hello.
I am missing metatag & web page description editing in the admin backend.
This is a nice feature in other toplists I use.

Would be great to have this in future releases.

Kind regards

you can just edit wrapper.html and have full control over the meta tags. meta tags are not something that people change very often, so i don't think an option in the settings would be very useful.

Mhh, just set up 2 new Aardvark topsites.
Really a lot of stuff to fumble around manually.

Ads:
I never understood why adbreak & adbreaktop always showed the same ads - I thought it was a bug over years.
Just now I found out that showing banners of all membersites results in the situation that the "top" one is displayed again and again on one page.

I drive my 14 toplists in the way that all banners are displayed for each member-site.
With this situation I can only do 1 ad per website in the toplist.

Would be great if ad fields could be set up in the way like other toplists do it.

1.) Admin backend - Ad fields:
1,7,20,30
2.) Each field is displayed empty ( Field 1,7,20&30 )in the admin area and you can fastly copy the ad affiliate code in to the box.

Hope you take it as constructive suggestions
Kind regards

the ad breaks are intended to be used with a third-party ad management software.

you say you just want to be able to put in the html for your different ads and be done with it. well, then other people will ask for click tracking and ad stats and targetting and all other kinds of features that are better served from a real ad manager. phpadsnew is a good free one.

I used click trackers like hell and even paid a fortune for all kind of solutions.

Today I use my toplist as click tracker ( since every toplist is linked with others I directly see whats happening ) + high ranks in Google etc. through linking it all up.

The real tracking ( browser,os,screen resolution,page view time,enter/exit,country etc. ) I do with my master affiliate. Currently I can grab the code of 1200 company affiliates and paste them in to my toplist boxes.

Editing ad files and working with FTP drives me crazy.

Thanks for discussing these things

Please have a look at the ads on http://www.esportsliga.biz as example for putting various adds fastly on my pages ( Of yourse you only see the results...but changing the ads is no real work -> Just pasting the code in adline boxes )

"View live page"
I really miss this feature ( on the top right in the admin area ) which I am used from the work with my other toplists.

Pasting the code in the ad line boxed combined with "View live page" makes it possible to drive ad campaigns very fast.
Its the combination of various features which can really improve the regular toplist work.

i'll consider it for the next version

Why don't use Tag Clouds (http://www.osempire.com/community/showthread.php?t=8146&highlight=Clouds) ?

[Jeremy]

tag clouds may be in the next version, if people find it useful. what do you guys think about it? would it actually get used?
