Hi,
I am not sure I understand you but let's try to explain:
The current MetaData feature is currently only a standard Jahia container attached to a page (ike any other container on the page) with two small texts fields. So they are indexed like all the other containers in Jahia. However we also reuse the value of both fields in the HTML source code such as:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1"/>
<meta name="Description" content="test description"/>
<meta name="Keywords" content="test, keywords, page"/>
So this is not really MetaData (in the DublinCore.org sense for example) but just a way to fulfill the Meta Name of the generated HTML page.
Then if you search for a specific work (e.g. keywords in the above example), the search engin will return to you the extract of the "Keywords" field value. Same is true for the other Description small text. And this will be similar for any other container on the page.

BTW: We are working on better Metadata support (such as last modif date, last author name, last reviewer, description, etc...) for each Jahia container but this will come in the next Jahia release.

Hi,
in Jahia every page can have metadata which can be administrated by clicking the option "Metadata" in page administration. It seems like the description and keyword fields which are displayed in the pop-up, are switched though. You have to insert the actual description into the keyword field and vice-versa to get the description shown in lucene search results. It seems like both fields are indexed but only the keywords are displayed.
Another possible view on the topic could be that the metadata fields are just right, but the search result template shows the wrong metadata field. keywords instead of the description.
Nevertheless, this is confusing. Normally you expect a nice description with your search result items and not a list of keywords.
Am I missing something and/or am I using the metadata panel in a wrong way or this is a bug? How are you guys out there are using the metadata?
