Jim,
Where I work, I designed our system such that we have an in-memory
representation of all the nodes in our site which was (somewhat)
independent of the index.jsp that defines the node. We hang a lot of
metadata off these nodes, a lot of which is inferred. This lets us do
things like h
I'm resurrecting this thread so that I can express my personal hatred
of the meta tags.
I propose that they be removed, or handled in a different way (and yes
I volunteer myself to write the code for it).
I'll be doing some thinking about and how to better handle the
many options for HTML,
If you'd rather keep this as an extension, Sean, I'd be happy to improve
my PageMeta Extension (it needs some tests, at least). I'd also
entertain additional features, recommendations to improve my code, or
even donate it to the core team's repository -- whatever -- if it would
help Radiant.
I can't speak for the core team but I wrote my own extension to do the
same thing for clarity and simplicity in the UI. Page parts are for the
page content (body) and the the other fields are for meta-data (kind of
like HTML's vs. ). It could be done without (for Radiant or
HTML) but is nice
Given the debate about how to implement an "inherit" functionality for
something that already exists with r:content, I'd say this is bloat.
I think there is a benefit in the user interface though, to have a
text field rather than a text area to manage a small amount of content
so I could be
Jamey,
That's great. In response to Jim, it was a common enough use case for
people who do SEO for their sites and such a low overhead to implement,
it seemed like a reasonable thing to add. I'd appreciate debates on
this matter, however, as I'm open to culling superfluous code from the core
I just implemented what Jim suggested in my project and it works
great. I created a meta_keywords and a meta_description page part in
the pages that I want the tags. The nice thing is that you can use
the inherit="true" parameter.

Nothing complicated, just something like:
This would inherit if the field is blank (empty or nil). These would
print a blank meta description tag if blank:

Or do you want some way to turn on inheritance on a per page basis (some
pages a blank description inherits, on others it doesn't)?

I'm curious about why r:meta was implemented. Couldn't you get the
same result by using page parts and dropping them in the appropriate
place in your layout?
I haven't used r:meta yet, so perhaps I'm unaware of some particular
benefit

Sounds good. I will start working on the patch.

No, they do not inherit by default, but I'd entertain a patch to add that.

I do have a question about the new metatags fields for keywords and
description. These work great, but I noticed that there is no way to
set them to inherit (unless I am missing some
