metadata on top of the site????

Post by Gregor »

When entering metadata in the option tab of the content editing page, I noticed that, after submitting the page, the metadata is displayed on top of the page. Thsi is when I visit the site.

How come??

Where did you put the {metadata} tag in your template?

Is that required? I thought "metadata", I add the names that relate to my site. I read the help, and I see that I must add {metadata} in 'Option tab', like this:
{metadata} zeilboot, Hanse, Gregor, Hanse311, "uisge beatha",

{metadata} is a tag for you template.  It should go between your tags.  It's basic purpose is to put in tags either on a sitewide basis, or per page.  When you type stuff into the metadata box, it needs the full tag definition.

Thanks!
One question left (perhaps), do mean to put
Uisge Beatha - een Hanse311 zeilboot







in a CSS? If so, which one would you suggest?

NOOO  ;) ...

1. Put your metatags like and so on in options tab of the content editing page.
2. Add the tag {metatag} inline the area of your template.

That's all ...

oeps..  ::)

Thanks for the tip! If I look at the source code of the first page, I see the tag's. I checked the template and by default (?) the {metatag} is there. Although I don't see the tag's on the webpages. That means that for every page you have to enter metatags in options tab of the content editing page?

There are global keywords on the Site Admin->Global Settings.  They will be applied to all pages with the {metadata} tag on them.
