go in to your code, press ctrl+f and type in <meta

and you will have your meta tags right there.

i can see that you have meta tags when i view your source.

.php files use the same HTML as .html files so the only foreign code to you should be the code that's in the <? and ?>'s

Hello - meta tags have the words "coming soon" but do not see this
meta tags in index.php

[Capo64]

Did you do ctrl+f and search <meta ?

If you tried and they weren't there then that's not the same file that's up there.

Unless if there's an include file, check the php code for the code

include("filename");

if that's there anywhere check those files for the meta tags too

Hello - Thanks for your kindness and help.I manage to change keywords
and description. But unable to change title.

The title codes is : <TITLE><?=$pageTitle ?></TITLE>

I look for pagetitle and found something below :

$pageTitle = $SITE_OBJ['sitename'];

$pageTitle = htmlentities($pageTitle);

many thanks.

The easiest way would be just to delete <?=$pageTitle ?> and replace it with whatever you want the title to be.

Although it looks like the person who ran the site before had the title stored in $SITE_OBJ['sitename'];

so you can search through and try to find where that value is set, once again, check include files etc. that's only if you want though. You can easily just do what i said before.

^^ reboot and run a full HDD virus scan?
btw, which AV program are you using?

Hello - I am using norton antivirus. suppose there are no virus on my
computer and the same problem continued, could it cause by other softwares running on my computer. I downloaded some new softwares from the net recently.

INHO, norton is not a professional AV. I recommend you either Kaspersky or BitDefender.

For example:
I had norton installed on my mother's computer and it couldn't detect a trojan that was there but my Kaspersky, installed on my computer did. how about that?
