    Hello Everyone

    I am quite to new to the world of bloging & forum.
    To start with I have created a forum at http://jobs.learnopensource.info/

    But the problem I am facing is of adding description & keyword tags to head section of my page.

    I edited forum/style/template/overall_header.html and added to keymords & description to rescepted tags.
    But I am not able to see these changes on my page.My page is still showing the old unedited contents.

    I am using a theme called avalongreen.

    Make sure you re upload it the overall_header.html file and make sure your editing the correct theme, upload to the correct theme folder.

    in your avalongreen folder, there's a folder called template, inside that is a file called overall_header.html

    Edit
    <meta name="keywords" content="words words words" />
    <meta name="description" content="This is my website" />

    Easy

    Login into your admin panel of your phpbb3 forum

    Push the button on the front "Purge cache" (or smilair text/own language)

    click yes

    Reload the site in the browser

    Done!

    In the admin section go to the "styles" tab at the top, then down on the left go to "templates". click edit beside the theme/style you are using.

    in the dropdown bar presented, select overall_header.html

    modify the existing spiel there (add your keywords and description between the supplied quotes)

    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset={S_CONTENT_ENCODING}" />
<meta http-equiv="content-style-type" content="text/css" />
<meta http-equiv="content-language" content="{S_USER_LANG}" />
<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />
<meta name="resource-type" content="document" />
<meta name="distribution" content="global" />
<meta name="copyright" content="2000, 2002, 2005, 2007 phpBB Group" />
<meta name="keywords" content="keywords go HERE" />
<meta name="description" content="description goes HERE" />
    Code (markup):
    easy peasey.

    :D
