Have SEO-friendly page titles

Reported by Michael Hartl | August 10th, 2008 @ 05:39 PM

Insoshi page titles should be more SEO-friendly. This blog post is a good place to start. Make sure to incorporate the global_prefs.app_name if (and only if) it's present.

    With an application helper method, and per-controller set_title method, and this thing:

    
        <title><%= app_title ? app_title + (@title ? " | #{@title}" : '') : "Insoshi Open Source Social Networking Platform" + (@title ? " | #{@title}" : '') -%></title>
    

    It works well. My only question here is how to go about working with id-person tokens, 1-admin etc. I don't know where that's implemented. Also a url such as /messages and I seem to require session data. Holler if I'm headed in the wrong direction, thanks.

    I think I've hammered this one. The implementation was pretty easy, but learning enough RSpec to write three stubs was challenging.

    Titles such as

    App | Search: lorem ipsum App | Profile for Linda Sunt

    Five hours of googling and rspec training videos to clear spec!
