Hello,
After looking around for a photo gallery to implement in my site I found Piwigo that seems to give attention to the Seo aspects, which other don't. I've set up in my site and start testing it. But I was concerned as when analising each page with seo doctor it says that the pages are not indexable.
the meta robots are noindex, nofollow
there is no meta description
link rel=canonical (why? this is very bad fo indexing)
Or am I wrong? Please enlihten me.
Thank you
Ajar

Sounds like you need to make a request for an SEO extension.
just checked my webmaster tools report and everything looks just fine.

what is your url? .. maybe there is some other problem..
An advice (if your domain has been registered very recently):
1) create an account in deviantart
2) upload a media size photo there
3) post a link to the relative page of your piwigo site where users can download the full size image
.. search engine bots will follow that link and should start indexing your site shortly.

SOMETIMES i see this entry ... after reload (shift-f5 @ windows, firefox), it's gone. I don't know how i can reproduces this ... bad bug-description "sometimes" ;). Problem on tags.php and/or picture.php?
But i don't have any problems with indexing. I use the Sitemap-Extension.
After i've changed this in local-config:
$conf['question_mark_in_urls'] = false;
$conf['php_extension_in_urls'] = false;
The index-speed increased rapidly - After 2-3 Days ALL ".php?" Entrys in Google are replaced (and added many new pages!) ... Bing now indexing my site ... before this: not really.
Use Bing/Google Webmaster-Tools. You can explicit added some special-sites for directly index (tags.php are good! "follow all links"; mainpage of course; bigger categories etc.)
But what is the problem with canonical? Google, Bing use this tag too avoid duplicated index. Piwigo has potential to produces duplicate Content without this (category-picture vs picture - same-content, 2 pages)
... sorry for my english ... i hope you understand me!
