Head Meta Pro

Head Meta Pro is the paid edition of Head Meta Data. It adds controls for WordPress tags beyond site-wide defaults, so different views and content entries can use their own settings.

Prepare the site-wide and view settings

Install the plugin, then configure default tags and settings for the home page, posts, pages, archives, and search pages. Custom post type support extends these controls to other content structures. You can tailor supported tags, add custom tags, disable unwanted tags, and use site information to populate values.

Facebook Open Graph and X (Twitter) tags have dedicated settings. Configure them globally or for each supported page-view type. The Pro edition also includes additional meta tags and a dedicated setting for the image_src link tag.

Use content values and review the preview

Shortcodes can insert a post title, excerpt, date, author, categories, tags, site title, site tagline, or current year. More than 40 advanced shortcut variables are also available, including %POST_AUTHOR% and %ARCHIVE_TYPE%. Use dynamic values when metadata should follow the content, or enter custom values when it should stay fixed.

A live preview lets you review meta tags and custom tags. The Meta Tags box for posts and pages includes individual settings for content that needs to differ from broader defaults. It can add custom meta tags to a post, page, or page view, and it integrates with SEO extensions. You can also add custom scripts and styles to a post or page view.

Apply and maintain the settings

  1. Install Head Meta Pro on your WordPress site.
  2. Configure default, page-view, and social tags in the add-on settings.
  3. Use shortcut variables or custom values where appropriate.
  4. Review the live preview, then add post- or page-specific settings through the Meta Tags box.
