SEO meta tags on each page.

By ghumanz 4148 days ago

I am trying to extract excerpts to display in meta description on each page of elgg 1.8.8. Something like that.

<meta name="description" content="<?php echo $excepts; ?>" />

<meta name="keywords" content="<?php echo $tags; ?>" />

I found this article to this but it is for 1.7

I asked same question in community but nobody reply.

I really appriciate if you give me some right directions on this.

Below is a link to community discussion. I also mention some more code there.

Thanks

@ Dhrup what is new in your code I already mention this in my comments, if you really want to help me and other member, please let me know how to pass entity in $vars.
I already tested below code and it display blank discription.
$excerpt = $vars['entity']->excerpt;
if (!$excerpt) {
$excerpt = elgg_get_excerpt($vars['entity']->description);
}

var_dump your $vars['entity']
Then you can see if you have an entity, and if the entity has a description for you to work with
