No H1 tags showing up

Bing webmaster tools pointed out my product detail pages have no H1 tags. I checked the productpage.ascx and found the page header div, commented out. I removed the comment tags and I can see H1 tags on the page but the product name is not filling in. So when I view source I see this:
<div class="pageHeader">
<h1><span id="ctl00_ctl00_NestedMaster_PageContent_ctl00_ProductName" itemprop="name"></span></h1>
</div>
There should be the product name filled in next to itemprop-"name">
Any ideas?
Thanks

I don't know what version of Gold you are using, but one version has this in the ProductPage.ascx:
Code: Select all
<h1><asp:Label ID="ProductName" runat="server" EnableViewState="false" itemprop="name"></asp:Label></h1>
Then the name is populated in the ProductPage.ascx.cs
Code: Select all
if(_Product != null)
{
ProductName.Text = _Product.Name;
..............

Hi Judy,
Thanks for the reply. As for my version, latest one except I have not put in: 9/8/2016
Service Release 1 for AbleCommerce Gold R12
It's interesting, in my code I see this: which means it's commented out.
if(_Product != null)
{
//ProductName.Text = _Product.Name;
I wonder why they would have commented this out? I guess I can uncomment both the sections that were commented out, see if it fixes it. Just hoping it does not create another problem.
Thanks again for the assist!

Ok, so kind of a good news / bad news thing. I un-commented out the affected areas and now I have h1 tags BUT my product name shows twice on the page which looks lame. I think I know why the developer did it, because of the way my page was customized. I'd think there would be a way to fix, I just don't know how.
If I 'inspect' the code where the first (proper placement) heading shows it shows this:
<span id="ctl00_ctl00_NestedMaster_PageHeader_StoreHeader_H_nameLabel">cascabel chiles </span>
Then, if I inspect where the H1 shows where it doesn't belong:
<span id="ctl00_ctl00_NestedMaster_PageContent_ctl00_ProductName" itemprop="name">cascabel chiles </span>
Any suggestions on how I might alter the code to put the h1 tag in the proper place?
Clearly, I'm not a developer but... I can cut and paste!
Thanks
