IMO what is missing here is a bridge between the new metadata API in
QGIS core and the "old" QGIS server metadata API.
It was always a deliberate choice to keep these two separate. The
thinking was that the metadata you use for your local projects and
layers isn't necessarily going to match what you want to publish and
advertise to external users. You might have sensitive information in
there, or just "internal only" details which you don't want/need to
publish.
I think all that's missing here is a button to auto-populate server
metadata by copying it from the project or layer metadata. It'd give a
quick way to initial populate the published metadata, which you could
then tweak as needed...
I see your point, thanks for the explanation. I'm not sure users need
different info on the desktop and on the server (we solved the issue for
services just adding an option to hide WMS, WFS services, as well as
individual fields), but of course more flexibility is not bad to have.
Not clear to me also how to add the metadata directly to the server.
Cheers.
