Plugin Meta Tag

Introduced in Tiki17

Use this wiki plugin to be able to insert one or more custom meta tags in the HTML head of the page where the plugin is present. Useful when you want to provide custom meta tags per page, e.g. for sharing with specific image on Social Networks. As the body (data) of the plugin is taken as raw html it always requires plugin approval by trusted site Admin/Editor on each edit.

Parameters

Add custom meta tags to the HTML head section of the page where the plugin is used.
Introduced in Tiki 17.
Go to the source code
Preferences required: wikiplugin_metatag

Parameters Accepted Values Description Default Since
(body of plugin) Meta tags attributes for the HTML head where each meta goes on one line and name of the meta tag and the content is separated by a pipe (|) character. Or just copy paste the raw HTML tags here.
content url Content attribute of the meta tag 17.0
name text Name attribute of the meta tag 17.0

Examples

Short syntax example:

Copy to clipboard
{metatag content="http://example.org/foo.jpg" name="twitter:image"}

Block syntax example:

Copy to clipboard
{METATAG()}
<meta content="http://example.org/foo.jpg" name="twitter:image">
<meta content="http://example.org/foo.jpg" property="og:image">
{METATAG}

Limitations

  1. It only adds the tag(s) to the head, it does not replace them, so if the same meta name tag is added, it will be twice there and first one takes the precedence
  2. It will not replace the admin settings. If a meta tag "description" is define at "tiki-admin.php?page=metatags" it will be used (at the beginning of the head) and a second meta tag "description" using this time the content from the plugin Meta Tag will be added. (tested on Tiki24)
  3. The plugin content must be approved, so it cannot be used for dynamic variables (unless all variants are approved)
