Introduction¶
What does it do?¶
This extension offers the opportunity to generate meta tags automatically. Excellent! you don't need to write these directly in the template no more, furthermore backend users now have the ability to set these meta tags easily :-). The meta tags setting is done via page records (see configuration section).
Meta tags are checked to be XHTML compliant ( maybe more at www.brikou.com ).
Actually, this extension generates these meta tags :
- abstract
- author
- copyright
- date
- descrpition
- keywords
- imagetoolbar
- MSSmartTagsPreventParsing
- revisit-after
- robots
- reply-to
Installation¶
Download the extension from TER then add this one to your main template as shown below :
¶
Remove meta tags from your template to prevent them from being rendered twice.
Change the type of your root page and choose “advanced”. Then you can add tags you've just removed from you standard template. Refer to next screenshot to decide where to insert information to be render by this extension through meta tags (most should be self explicit like keywords or description).
Administration¶
It's the same as page administration because setings are set through this kind of record.
Configuration¶
Screenshot¶
You can enable or disable the rendering of a metatags in the TYPO3 Constant Editor, here's a screenshot of the available options you can configure...
