META Tags vs tru_tags and tagging.

I’ve got the tru_tags plugin working brilliantly and it’s a marvel. My question is really for the crawlers that still have a glance at Meta Tags in HTML (debated, I know). Even a low priority still assumes that these tags have some value.

Is there a way to jam Tru-tags into the meta tag for each article or is there something else I can do when writing to affect that portion of HTML?

Re: META Tags vs tru_tags and tagging.

I’ve not tried it as I use another method to put meta keywords and description into the head, but you could try
<txp:meta_keywords /> in the head. I don’t know if tru_tags affects this.

As tru_tags is using the keywords field, you can just do this:

<txp:if_individual_article>
     <meta name="keywords" content="<txp:keywords />" />
<txp:else />
     <meta name="keywords" content="your,sitewide,keywords" />
</txp:if_individual_article>
