Bolt SEO extension
==================
The Bolt SEO extension is an extension to help you improve the search engine
indexing of your Bolt website in a number of ways. It does this by:
- Allowing you to specify the SEO title and meta-description for your pages.
- Adding meta tags to your HTML to facilitate indexing of your pages using meta
tags and OG tags.
- Override the canonical, if you really want to.
- Set the ``-tag.
Setup
-----
To use this extension, you should add a field to your contenttypes, and add the
tags to the header of your HMTL templates.
In your contenttypes, you should add a single `seo` field. The extenion will
use this to store the data for the different fields that show in the backend
when editing a record. Simply add it to your fields like this;
```yaml
pages:
name: Pages
singular_name: Page
fields:
[..]
seo:
type: seo
group: "SEO settings"
```
You can assign the fields their own tab, using the `group: 'SEO settings'`, to
keep them organised in the backend.
After you've done this, it will look like this in the Bolt backend:
To add the SEO title and Meta tags to your HTML, edit your templates (the
'master' or 'header') to have the following:
```HTML
{{ seo.title() }}
{{ seo.metatags() }}
```
When you've done this, all pages that make use of these templates will
automatically have the correct `` tag and the meta- and OG-tags.
### Configure the 'meta tags' output
By default, the output of the meta-tags is defined in the file
`extensions/vendor/bobdenotter/seo/twig/_metatags.twig`. If you'd like to
configure this output, you shouldn't edit this file directly. If you do,
changes will be overwritten on subsequent updates of this extension. Instead,
in `/app/config/extensions/seo.bobdenotter.yml` uncomment the following lines:
```yaml
templates:
meta: _metatags.twig
```
Next, copy the file `_metatags.twig` to your theme folder, and the extension
will pick it up from there.
**Note:** This is a new extension, so the functionality is still pretty bare
bones. What's there works well, but there is probably a lot of functionality to
add, to improve search engine indexing. If you'd like to contribute, or have a
good idea, feel free to open an issue on the tracker at the
[SEO Extension repository][gh] on Github.
