Set Meta Tags (SEO Tags) in CakePHP

Hello Friends,

In my previous post, i show you the way how to set Page Title Tag in CakePHP. But setting Meta keywords and Meta Description is not the same way as Meta Title. .Also Meta Keyword and Meta Description is important part of Search Engine Optimization. Refer to below syntax to set Meta tags in CakePHP.

//Output <meta name=”keywords” content=”enter any meta keyword here”/>

?>
//Output <meta name=”description” content=”enter any meta description here”/>

Hello Friends,

Today i have implemented a Zip functionality in CakePHP. If you want to create an archive file consists of some files to give a download Zip fileoption to user than i might help you to show the steps. Below are the steps how to zip all files and save it to some folder.

Download Zip Component

$this->Zip->addFile($src_file,$file_name_inzip);

$this->Zip->saveZip(“myzipfile.zip”);

First you can download the file given in link and place above file in components directory in your app/controller folder. Now you can call the function addFile for adding files in zip. Once you will call this function it will read all data from src_file. Now you can save those data to Zip file by calling saveZip function.
