Add support for meta property named "description" #121

Open MaybeThisIsRu opened 4 years ago

MaybeThisIsRu commented 4 years ago

I currently use Forestry CMS to publish articles to my site. While Micropub offers support for articles, it does so without an important SEO property: meta descriptions.

You can read more about them on the MDN docs.

My suggestion is to add a property where the user is able to specify a summary of the article/note/etc. while publishing that allows their publishing setup to automatically take care of inserting this meta property in their page header.

I think this might require bringing microformats2 up to speed?

@hirusi Wouldn't summary be acceptable?

Oooh, my bad. Yes, we could use that. I think that solves it for me.

I wonder if there are users who would want a separate field for SEO and use summary for... well, summaries.
