Hell Glen,
I have tried this also, but in the browser it did not place value of
this (${entry.searchDescription}) rather than just display same as plain
text. The same problem which I mentioned before also. But when I use
this in day.vm it gave correct value to description through this.
Also, as you said user might add sensitive information, we can rather
can tell user in advanced setting tab that its meta-description. As I
did not see any use of that searchDescription in the theme. I am not
sure if it is used in search of the blog !!!
Thanks
Gaurav

Hi Gaurav, you need to alter your header template to include the
search description field ( $entry.searchDescription, as listed in the
Roller template guide.) We do not do that by default, partly out of
concern that someone might put sensitive information in that field and
not realize that it's appearing in the (invisible from the browser)
header of every HTML page. (Perhaps however, we should modify the
templates to do that anyway, I'm not sure how serious/common a concern
that would be.)
Something like this should work for you: <meta name="Description"
content="${entry.searchDescription}">

Hello,
I checked the search description and have entered some text, but it
did not still show up in meta description. Although, if we can get
the value in head.vm than we can add meta description line. I tired
adding $tag.name in head.vm for keywords and also $entry.summary but
did not get the desired value in this file.
Thanks

Description (what we call "Search Description") is in 5.1-SNAPSHOT
(not earlier versions), check the "Advanced" section on the blog
entry edit page. Keywords are old-fashioned and as I understand
pretty much ignored today.

Hello,
I recently checked the template of roller did not have dynamic
meta tags
like description, keywords. It although have title tag which is
dynamic
according to the page we are on. But no keywords and
meta-description.
Although Various other blogging platform also do not use this, as
many
search engines did not use keywords for ranking, as people misused
this tag
in past easily.
But, one thing we can do, which can stand from other blogging
platform is
we can use blog summary first 100 words as the meta description.
And the
same we can use the tags as meta keywords for the header. Want
some ideas,
Is we can do something for this ?
