Allow Front Page to use default values #13

Open ghost opened 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

The Front Page form (admin/config/metadata/seo_meta/home/en) doesn't allow using the defaut values (admin/config/metadata/seo_meta) for empty fields. It'd be nice if that were an option.

A note on the Front Page form says: "Please note: any field that left empty will not generate corresponding tag."

Whereas a note on the default values form says: "Values of meta tags defined below will be added as default to the pages where meta tags not defined."

Side note, some of the wording quoted above could be fixed up a bit too...

1) I think homepage is important enough to be set up individually. 2) About side notes: you are welcome to help me fix incorrect wording, English is only third language in my daily life.

It seems homepage isn't fully setup individually. If I select to append sitename to page name under default then this also happens on front page. This is no good if I want the home page to be "Site name | slogan"

@yorkshire-pudding, thank you for valuable help and interest. You mentioned two opposite cases: site-wide defaults and individual front pages for each language.

Appending site name to page title and changing shortcut icon attributes currently available only as site-wide defaults and can not be overridden.

In the latest (v.1.0.15) release I've added note to README.md:

"This module is NOT intended to completely replace or repeat all the functions of its "big brother" ("Metatag" module) - only the necessary minimum set of functions."

This was the main motivation for creating this simple module 7 ears ago, when its IMHO overloaded "big brother" has not been ported yet.
