cmsms 102 - metadata appear as text on site

Post by zebulon »

Hi all!

1st: CMSMS is really a cool piece of work - so thanks a lot to all of you developing and improving this CMS. I hope to be able to submit a little custom tag soon.

But now to the bug (?) I discovered. I installed CMSMS 102 on my PC, W2K, localhost running with XAMPP1.5.3a - everything fine so far.
When I altered the metadata of one of the pre-installed pages (options-tab of the page, textarea name and id "metadata" - I added this: "metadata haben nix im Seitenbereich verloren!!!")  those words appeared readable in the browser. As for the sourcecode of the page, it puts them directly after the -Tag. It reads:



metadata haben nix im Seitenbereich verloren!!!


This is, although the {metadata}-tag is inserted after the {title}-tag within the pageheader of the template (Left simple navigation + 1 column).

Anybody knows how to fix this?

cheers,
Johannes

I found this bug too, and i dont have to put tags in for when i want content to appear then why do i need to add tags for the meta data. If the forms says add your metadata here I would naturally assume the CMS system would put the required tags on and put it in the right place.

If a knowledge of HTML tagging is required to write content for the CMS why bother with a CMS, why not just write pages in good old HTML?

Not all meta tags are created equal, some may be something other than keywords, if it was to auto generate the meta data it may have every thing with keyword=...

It may help if it was broken down into Edit boxes that said Keywords:, Something else:, etc.:, etc : and have them auto generate the rest of the tag, but I think the development team has enough to do at the moment....

If you have any idea how to change this jump right in, that's the beauty of OSS you can change anything you want...
