Is there some way to use this extension on a template and insert a template variable into the page description:

 * See Extension:MetaDescriptionTag. Requires upgrading to version 0.2 of the extension, as well as installing Extension:TagParser (if you're not already running MediaWiki 1.12+). -Jlerner 15:32, 24 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Thank you! It's working very well Brian of London 20:40, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

This Extension is a very nice one. Tried it before couldn't get it working. Actually it's very simple. There's only one thing i would like to have a workarount for. The searchability for meta tags. I can do it with another Extension, RigorousSearch, making it the default searchengine on my Wiki, but that one is taking lots of recourses of the server and can take some time depending on the Wiki size. But the RigorousSearch finds the Meta tags without problem.
 * Not quite sure what you mean. -Jlerner 02:32, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
 * The Meta description you can give with this extension is not found by the MediaWiki built in searchengine. It can only be found if you replace the built in searchengine by RigorousSearch. That is what i've done now to search for the Meta description. Another thing i'm interested in: hoe can i add more than 1 Meta description? It's not with a seperating comma  because that makes a weird page.
 * If you search for , it should come up in RigorousSearch, but I am not an expert on that extension. Also, only one meta description allowed per page. -Jlerner 21:14, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * You can put more than one meta description on one page, the only rule is that you put every description in it's own tags. Sypie
