MetaTags Plugin for glFusion

Version: 1.0.4

OVERVIEW

The Metatags plugin allows you to set

and

<meta name="description" content="Some description">

meta tags in HTML <head> section according to the page content. Currently meta tags are supported in articles and staticpages.

USAGE

The Metatags plugin uses glFusion's autolink feature. If you have disabled it, please enable the feature in Configuration UI (Miscellaneous - Miscellaneous - Disable Autolinks).

In an article or a staticpage, if you write as an autotag, this tag will be converted into

<meta name="keywords" content="comma_separated_keywords">.

For example, to have the following keywords shown in the header:

[meta:key glfusion,cms,content management system]

Would produce:

<meta name="keywords" content="glfusion,cms,content management system">.

Likewise, if you write , the tag will be converted into <meta name=“description” content=“description of the current page”>. In both cases, autotags themselves are not visible in the content except for the editor(s).

For example, to place a meta description in a story, use:

[meta:desc This is a description of this story]

Would produce

<meta name="description" content="This is a description of this story">

Your keywords and description MUST NOT contain a right square bracket(']').

CONFIGURATION

Once you have installed the Metatags plugin, it works well without manual configuration. However, if you would like to change the name of autotag (default value is 'meta') or keys translated into meta tag keys (default values are 'key' and 'desc'), you can set up the plugin through Configuration UI (http://yoursite/admin/configuration.php).

Autotag name: the name glFusion recognizes as an autotag (meta in theabove USAGE)
Replace: keys (the label left to an textarea) will be converted into meta tag keys (the string in an textarea). For example:

      tag use  => meta tag
      key      => keyword
      desc     => description
      au       => author

    [meta:au Mark R. Evans] translates to:
    <meta name="author" content="Mark R. Evans">

Default keywords (comma separated): keywords used globally when no article or staticpage is displayed, e.g., at the site's homepage
Default description: description used globally when no article or staticpage is displayed, e.g., at the site's homepage
Execute PHP: When parsing static pages for the meta auto tag, should the metatags plugin execute embedded PHP? The default, and recommended setting for this is false.
Hide Tags for authors - By default, the meta auto tag will display in the story or staticpage only for content authors. Setting this to true will hide them completely (only visible when editing).
