Page title and description not working with custom ECK entity bundle

Standard ECK handler to display the object, I think.

I created the entities in my ECK and displayed everything with code running from my global.module file, using:

function thisweek_block_global($setrange) {
  $query = new EntityFieldQuery();
  $query ->entityCondition('entity_type', 'events')
         ->entityCondition('bundle', 'event')
.....

foreach ($entites as $entity) {...

And just above this I have my hook menu to set up the page:

function global_menu() {
  $items['events'] = array(
    'title' => 'What\'s On',
    'type' => MENU_NORMAL_ITEM,
    'page callback' => 'global_events',
    'menu_name' => 'main-menu',
    'access arguments' => array('access content'),
  );
  return $items;
}

Any ideas, thanks.

I did read somewhere that we needed something like:

function global_entity_info() {
  array (
    'metatag' => TRUE
  );
}

Though after further reading of the change log, this was no longer needed?

Good question!
Both, I think Damien, what do you suggest?

Thanks, Barry

check admin/config/search/metatags to see if your ECK entity type and its bundles are enabled.

Yes I have checked this, both the entity type(Events) and bundle(Event) are visible and selected/ticked.

The second would need either some custom work or for you to use maybe Metatag:Context to define the meta tags for the custom page's path.

Some more code added to our modules code? And what is Metatag:Context, another module?

Out of interest, why didn't you use Views to build the events page? That way you could have used Metatag:Views for the events page's meta tags.

I know, something I did consider, I had already built the module before I started using metatags. I have been working on this code for months in my module and much easier to output the sort of data I need for my events, using month and date headers, adding rich snippets etc.

Don't believe it... been at this for over two night, I didn't realise I could 'Add a Metatag default' this let me add tokens for my Events/event bundle, works good now ha :)

Ok, so my single events pages are showing a description with correct titles, once I found the correct event tokens. That just leaves us with the events page, which has no description meta tag, any ideas on this Damien?

Barry

Ok, cool, glad you got the ECK display sorted.

Thanks so am I :)
So we know that things do work with ECK and bundles, for anybody else having this problem.

I've managed to get things to work using what you suggested, though I needed to download the Context module, a little over kill for one pages description tag, though things do work, nice to know.

Ok, so I think that covers things Damien, unless you can think of anything further to add?

Thanks again, quick responses and sharing your knowledge.

Best,
Barry
