Description
This module applies a data extension to SiteTree providing a mechanism to populate meta description header from a defined set of content fields when the default MetaDescription is empty.
The list can use names of fields, names of methods or leverage the the dot notation to reference relations or methods, as outlined in the configuration example below.
Use with Dataobjects
The extension this module provides can also be applied to dataobjects, for example if you are outputting them as pages and need meta tags included in the source of the page.
In this case the MetadataTagsTrait also needs to be used by those dataobjects.
Installation with Composer
composer require "chrometoaster/silverstripe-metadescription-fallback"
Example configuration
In your config.yml
, define the list of fields:
Chrometoaster\SEO\DataExtensions\MetaDescriptionFallbackExtension: fallback_fields: - Description - Introduction - Content.Summary - RelatedPages.First.MetaDescription
Run dev/build either via opening the url http://<your-host>/dev/build
in a browser or
by running the dev/build task using CLI.
