Troubleshooting
If you find that these preferences are not taking affect and not persisting - when you click "change settings" nothing happens and the flag is cleared on the next screen, you may find that the rows are missing from tiki preferences.

Ensure the following rows exist:
INSERT INTO `tiki_preferences` (`name`, `value`) VALUES ('metatag_freetags', 'y');
INSERT INTO `tiki_preferences` (`name`, `value`) VALUES ('metatag_threadtitle', 'y');
INSERT INTO `tiki_preferences` (`name`, `value`) VALUES ('metatag_imagetitle', 'y');
