I may have an older version, but I imagine that response.meta.keywords is
still just a string.
It may be c.keywords is type map?
I think type map would be an iterator which you can convert to a list.
Once you've used it, it's gone.
So, did you try something like on e of these?:
response.meta.keywords = ', '.join( c.keyword) ) # if it's a list
or
response.meta.keywords = ', '.join( list( c.keywords) ) # convert map to
a list
or
response.meta.keywords = ', '.join( [ i[0] for i in list(c.keyword)] ) #
it may be a list of lists
Sorry, but as you can see, my motto is simply 'try everything until it
works'!
You may wish to read up about the map function and iterators if this is a
new concept.
