Post by **ccb056** » September 14th, 2025, 10:13 pm

If you're using the prosilver style in phpBB3 and want to show the topic title as the meta description tag, follow these steps:

Go to:

Code: Select all

styles/prosilver/template/overall_header.html

Inside the <head> section, add this:

Code: Select all

<!-- IF SCRIPT_NAME == 'viewtopic' -->
<meta name="description" content="{TOPIC_TITLE}">
<!-- ENDIF -->
<!-- IF SCRIPT_NAME == 'viewforum' -->
<meta name="description" content="{FORUM_NAME}">
<!-- ENDIF -->

After editing, clear the phpBB cache:
Via ACP → General → Purge Cache

Let me know if you need help installing the extension or customizing the template further!
