Extra Meta Tags

UPDATED TO 1.0.3

Hi all Well, I'm both new to vB and vB hacks, this is my first one, hope you like it

What is Extra Meta Tags?

Extra Meta Tags is a modification that adds additional Meta Tags to your forum, aside from the standard description and keywords tags already included by vBulletin.

What tags does it add?

It adds the following tags:
Abstract
Robots
Revisit-After
Rating
Distribution
MSSmartTagsPreventParsing
If you want a certain tag added, feel free to ask.

INSTALLATION
- Import the product 'extra_meta_tags.xml'
- Do below template edit.

Open the 'headerinclude' template.

FIND:
------
Code:
<!-- CSS Stylesheet -->
ABOVE, ADD:
-------------
Code:
<!-- Extra Meta Tags by SecondV -->
<meta name="abstract" content="$vboptions[exmeta_abstract]" />
<meta name="robots" content="$vboptions[exmeta_robots]" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="$vboptions[exmeta_visit_after]" />
<meta name="rating" content="$vboptions[exmeta_rating]" />
<meta name="distribution" content="$vboptions[exmeta_dist]" />
<if condition="$vboptions[exmeta_mssmarttags] == 'yes'"><meta name="MSSmartTagsPreventParsing" content="true" /></if>
<!-- / Extra Meta Tags by SecondV -->
Save.

UPGRADING

<meta name="rating" content="$vboptions[exmeta_rating]" />
<meta name="distribution" content="$vboptions[exmeta_dist]" />
<!-- / Extra Meta Tags by SecondV -->

----------------

<!-- Extra Meta Tags by SecondV -->
<meta name="abstract" content="$vboptions[exmeta_abstract]" />
<meta name="robots" content="$vboptions[exmeta_robots]" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="$vboptions[exmeta_visit_after]" />

Not sure if the author tag is one that should be used as forums are made by many authors.

Hmm, true. I was thinking about removing the author tag, and adding a few others. But, seeing as this type of hack has been done twice.. I really don't see the need.

However, if I get some free time, I may update it.

You do all know that SE's don't bother with these and stopped about 7 Years ago?

Umm.. No they have not. Maybe a few of the major ones; but there are engines that still rely on these tags.
