I wanted to have meta tags on all pages, so my wiki could get discovered in search engines, but I have to embed WikiSEO code on all articles which would be time consuming.


WikiSEO works wonders when I use it on an individual article, but meta tags should be active on all articles to get anywhere.


Instead, I had the idea to use a sitenotice since it was global (Meaning it appears on all pages of the website, unless it is dismissed), but in actuality it does not work at all.


Is there an easy way to embed WikiSEO meta tags on all current and future articles? Thank you in advance for the help.

Hi there, WikiSEO currently does not support setting meta tags globally, as the seo data is build using per page properties. Adding a default description / keywords tag to all pages could be added relatively easy but I don't think that that would suffice.

I've added this request to the todo list: https://github.com/octfx/wiki-seo/issues/8

You could make a a template that adds the default things to the SEO plugin. We have a template for articles, projects, blogs etc.. that will simply feed all the necessary information to the WikiSEO plugin automatically. That would only work if pages are made from templates.

Also, doesn't WikiSEO already automatically fill in the most important SEO information ?

I want it too.

You will always want to have a per page settings. Setting things globally for all pages will only backfire SEO wise.

Not if the wiki is centered on one subject. Let's say you have a wiki about food, every tag should contain the word "food", then yeah you could add additional tags per article to define it much better. Furthermore, I only installed wikiseo after I used the wiki a lot, so a lot of pages are missing SEO tags outright. The feature I proposed could help cope with this issue.
