It's fairly well known that the page title is an important element when it comes to getting your pages to rank well on the search engines. While Opencart produces page titles that are relevant, they are playing a dual role. For example, you want your category titles to be short and punchy because this is what appears in your category menu and you want your users to be able to find what they are looking for quickly and easily. On the other hand, the page title is what appears in the search results, and short and punchy isn't necessarily what you want.

This extension allows you to create custom page titles for:
* homepage
* category pages
* manufacturer pages
* information pages

If you don't need a custom title for a particular page, simply leave the SEO Page Title field blank and Opencart will use the default page title.

IMPORTANT. This Extension requires that you have VQMod installed.
If VQMod is not installed you can obtain it free from here : http://code.google.com/p/vqmod/

Remember, you will need version 2.1.7 of VQMod if you are using version 1.5.4 (or later) of Opencart.

Installation
------------

1. Extract all the files from the zip file.
2. Upload the vqmod folder to your opencart root directory (nothing is overwritten - it's all new files).
3. Upload the file "runonce.php" to your opencart root directory.
4. Browse to http://www.yourstoresfulladdress.com/including any subfolders/runonce.php. This will create the required additional fields in the database.
5. Delete the file "runonce.php"
