    Hi Stiofan,

    “Title and meta tags” now only work in category description.
    e.g.
    %%category%% %%in_location_single%%

    It would be really helpful, if these tags work in other areas as well, actually everywhere in the theme:

    most important they should work here as well:
    – in GD archive templates
    – in location descriptions
    – in widgets areas (sidebar)

    can you implement this please?
    Thanks a lot,
    Marc

    Hi Mark,

    They are not always applicable everywhere, but if you can give me good use cases we will consider it, for example the reviews widget is not limited per category so it does not apply there.

    Hi Stiofan

    This title tags are very important for SEO reasons on the category pages. The combination of category and location in the headings and description are crucial for individualizing the content:

    If I want to have 2 category descriptions, one short description on top and one with further content in bottom of listings page, then it would be great to have the “Title and meta tags” working in archive pages as well. Another solution is to activate this title tags in other category description areas as well (like the standard description field or the “Archive Intro Text” field (see screenshots)

    Good Use case:
    (scroll to bottom after listings)

    widget area (sidebar):
    To add the title tags in widgets is this code working for GDv2 as well?

    Location descriptions: same here if you need to combine Location description with a category, then it would be very helpful to use title tags in location descriptions as well in order to individualize the output.

    Thanks
