Four Changes Allow LightNEasy To Have Page-specific Titles and Keywords
Here is a way to edit the title and keywords on each page using the existing add/edit page interface (works just like description). I used advice from several posts and traced references all over creation (:D) on database version 3.2.You only need to edit admin.php, lightneasy.php and common.php pages, then add two fields to the end of {your database name}_paginas table. For the fields, I called them title and keywords, and used the same formatting as with _paginas description field (text).
All of my code edits are prefaced with // JSS and I've kept the original unedited code just below each of my edits (prefaced with //).
You can find my edited below:
It's a pretty good feature to have, and I hope you find it useful.

SECOND: A Defensive PC
For a variety of good reasons, PCs (especially laptops) have aggressive protections in place against too much or too little electricity, both of which can permanently damage internally components. As such, once these protections are activated, they often remain in a defensive stance until they are manually deactivated.
The procedure for resetting these defences on desktops and laptops may differ, but the principle is the same.
Desktops
The majority of desktop PCs house their power supply (a self contained metal box roughly 150mm x 150mm x 90mm) inside. It is usually located in the right back of horizontal units or in the top back of vertical towers. Often, just unplugging the power cable for about an hour will allow the power supply to cool and reset itself. Some units feature a circuit breaker that protrudes outward, when tripped. Again, unplug the power cord, press the circuit breaker back in, wait about an hour, then reconnect power.
Laptops
Almost all modern laptops have external power supplies. They take the form of a small plastic brick with power from the wall coming in one side and a cable to the laptop on the other. In the case of a laptop, it is not enough to unplug power from the wall socket. You should also unplug the brick from the computer. Finally, having done both, you will need to remove the laptop's battery.
Now that you've removed all sources of power, wait five minutes. Then reassemble and try again. We've found that reattaching the wall power first (without installing the battery), then trying to restart the machine works best.
By the way, if this step works for either a desktop or a laptop, but needs to be done more than once, it may be an indication of a failing power component or a dying machine. You should probably perform more frequent backups and contact a computer professional for assistance.
