Hi Jeff,
I’m new to WordPress and try your Head Meta Data plugin at the moment. Looked on this forum and have been reading the documentation. It is maybe outdated, because I can’t get my head around placing meta tags on individual pages. I use the latest WordPress with Live Canvas builder and Picostrap Child Theme. I see you’r developing a Pro version of the plugin. When will that be ready and is it priced reasonable? Because I’m surprised being a static webdesigner for 15 years about the pricing for WordPress plugins. For the most basic things you have to pay yearly and no small amounts!
By the way I’m still using your htaccess book! Ha Ha!
Thanks,
David
]]>Hey mate, there’s a deprecated warning in php8.2:
Deprecated: dirname(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($path) of type string is deprecated in /wp-content/plugins/head-meta-data/head-meta-data.php on line 49
Here’s how we fixed it: (should work with previous versions of php also)
We updated the function:
function hmd_i18n_init() {
global $hmd_path;
$path = $hmd_path ? dirname($hmd_path) : null;
if ($path) {
load_plugin_textdomain(‘head-meta-data’, false, $path .’/languages/’);
}
}
add_action(‘init’, ‘hmd_i18n_init’);
Cheers,
Kent
Hi there, running WP 2021. My site title and met descriptions are showing find in page source (I put them both within header.php). But the page title for my static Front Page ‘Perfectly human copywriting services’ won’t show whatever I do. Screaming Frog tells me this is a critical issue that is affecting my SEO. Can someone advise please? ChatGPT has suggested various fixes, from the simple to the extreme, none of which work. This is the time for someone to prove they are better than machines. Many thanks, in hope ??

Thank you
]]>Hi dear @specialk ,
Two weeks ago and precisely on November 26, 2020 the latest and most updated official stable version of PHP 8.0.x was released while 1 day ago and precisely on November 8, 2020 the latest and most updated official and stable version was released of WordPress 5.6.x which supports the new version of PHP 8.0.x .
I wanted to ask you the following question:
When you make your “Head Meta Data” plugin compatible with the latest and most updated official stable version of PHP 8.0.x , you have an ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) ?
Thanks in advance for the support.
]]><meta name=”category” content=”tag_name”>
instead of using [hmd_post_cats], I would like to pull the tags of the post instead.
]]>Hi, great looking plugin, thank you.
How to add additional functions and shortcodes?
Can the shortcodes be added to SEO plugins like Autodescription or Yoast META fields?
How about shortcodes in the post excerpt hand-crafted summary text?
Thanks

I’m using the Meta Head Data plugin but I can’t save changes to the settings. Every time I click Save Setting it redirects me to my website saying Oops! That page can’t be found. If I go back to the app any changes I made to the setting haven’t been saved.
]]>hello,
I have questions before installing. Sorry I do not find your clear explanation from your plugin. Because not all pasts and pages use same meta:
How to add meta description for each post and page?
Is it able to add meta description for each Category and product?
Please advise. Thanks in advance!
]]>Can this plugin work with the code on this page: https://gist.github.com/palimadra/3023928
so that I can have: WordPress – Automatically generate meta description from content, on all post pages on my site?
]]>I don’t understand how I am to put the meta data in for each post. The homepage was easy, can’t miss it but then I could find no way to individualize the meta data in the head for each post.
I am doing this because of a Bing SEO Analyzer flag.
“The description is missing in the head section of the page.”
I didn’t even know what it was until Bing brought it up.
How do I deal with individual posts?
Or is this more of a sitewide deal? The documentation said it could go on all posts and pages. Did you mean that the general information would be distributed to each post
I have an apostrophe in my business name. This plugin adds a backslash “\” before every apostrophe – for example, copyright, publisher, etc.
]]>This is not so much of a support question, but why would we add meta data to the head of pages in 2015, when Google (and I think Yahoo and Bing?) explicitly says they don’t care about meta data when they index pages? Or have I misunhderstood what they say?
]]>Hi Jeff,
Great kind thanks for Head Meta Data and everything else you’re doing — it’s really helpful and useful.
I’m having a problem with Head Meta Data throwing HTML 5 validation errors, specifically, like so: “”Bad value distribution for attribute name on element meta: Keyword distribution is not registered”
Maybe consider support for Dublin Core?
]]>hello
first : thank you for developping for WP
but using your plugin I meet an issue
the field for the custom tag refuses the normal end of the declaration.
if I write …content=’something’> it will erase the content and display nothing. in order to have the word(s) displayed I have to write …content=’something
without the end and then it will display : <meta name=’custom’ content=’something
no closing quote, no closing arrow
would you please fix this
or could it be a plugin conflict ?
thanks
