All About Drupal Schema Metatag

Among CMS, Drupal stands out. One of its key features is the “Metatag” module. This is a potent tool that helps website administrators take control of metadata for different types of content.

While metadata may not be visible to the average website visitor, it plays a crucial role in how search engines and other systems understand and categorize content.

All About Drupal Schema Metatag

This metadata contains key elements like meta titles, meta descriptions, and meta keywords.

Today, we will take a look at the Metatag module in Drupal.

How to Install the Schema.org Metatag Drupal Module

  1. First, we have to log into Drupal and access our Drupal admin dashboard.
  2. Then, head to the Extend section and install the Metatag module.
  3. Now, we must download and install the “Schema.org Metatag” module from this link.

    https://www.drupal.org/project/schema_metatag

  4. Next, click on “Enable newly added modules.”
  5. Then, locate “Schema.org Metatag” and select the checkbox from the list of available modules. Additionally, choose the Schema types that suits our website’s content.
  6. Finally, click the “Install” button to activate the Schema.org Metatag module.

How to Configure Schema.org Metatag

  1. First, click “Search and metadata” under Configuration and click Metatag in our Drupal admin panel.
  2. Then, we have to decide if we want to apply schema to all Drupal pages globally or target specific pages. For global application, click “Edit” next to “Global.” Furthermore, select the “Metatag Settings” tab for specific pages.
  3. Next, we have to select the entity types we want to associate with schemas.
  4. Now, it is time to click Save Configuration at the bottom.
  5. Then, head to the “Metatag defaults” tab.
  6. At this point, we have to click “Edit” next to the entity type we selected earlier.
  7. Now, scroll to the schema section to configure our metadata. After the changes, we have to click Save.

Unlocking Advanced Features

The “Metatag” module offers several advanced features to fine-tune our website’s metadata and SEO performance. These include:

  • Canonical URLs
  • Social Media Sharing Tags
  • Mobile App Deep Linking
  • Handle SEO-Related Tasks

After configuring metatags, we have to verify that they are correct on the web page’s source code. We can do this with tools like web browser developer tools or online SEO analysis tools.
