content block - adding them for seo keywords & description

Hi

I am adding 2 content blocks to my template so the I can easily add meta descriptions and keywords without having to use the optional Page Specific Metadata section - see below...

{metadata}



I am using the oneline='true' which of course only gives you a single line - too small, setting it to false gives the normal multi-line editor which is too large. Is there anyway to obtain an edit section that only contains say 3 or 4 lines?

Also... is there a way to change the order of the content blocks on the edit content screen?

Wouldn't it be great if these were made a permanent feature so each page had the meta description and keywords editor whichout having the type the code into the Page Specific Metadata section. I see it been requested a few times on the forum for some time.

Thanks, Steve

Hi Stevegos,

A few answers...
Also... is there a way to change the order of the content blocks on the edit content screen?
Yes, the order used in the template, is the order in the page editor.
Wouldn't it be great if these were made a permanent feature so each page had the meta description
In the options tab of the page editor you can fill in the title or description of every single page at the line 'Description (title attribute)'.

Code: Select all

<meta name="description" content="{description}" />

thanks Rolf

I just found you can set the size of a oneline content block, but if you set it to say size='200', then the text box disapears off the side of the screen!
