Adding static values

{{#seo:
|title=Your page title
|title_mode=append
|keywords=these,are,your,keywords
|description=Your meta description
|image=Uploaded_file.png
|image_alt=Wiki Logo
}}

Adding dynamic values

If you need to include variables or templates you should use the parser function to ensure they are properly parsed. This allows you to use Cargo or Semantic MediaWiki , with Page Forms , for data entry, or for programmatic creation of a page title from existing variables or content...

{{#seo:
 |title={{#if: {{{page_title|}}} | {{{page_title}}} | Welcome to WikiSEO}}
 |title_mode={{{title_mode|}}}
 |keywords={{{keywords|}}}
 |description={{{description|}}}
 |published_time={{REVISIONYEAR}}-{{REVISIONMONTH}}-{{REVISIONDAY2}}
}}
{{#seo:
 |title_mode=append
 |title=Example SEO Wiki
 |keywords=WikiSEO, SEO, MediaWiki
 |description=An example description for this wiki
 |image=Wiki_Logo.png
 |image_alt=Wiki Logo
 |site_name=Example SEO Wiki
 |locale=en_EN
 |type=website
 |modified_time={{REVISIONYEAR}}-{{REVISIONMONTH}}-{{REVISIONDAY2}}
 |published_time=2020-11-01
}}

Maintenance Script

WikiSEO provides a maintenance script to generate descriptions for specified pages. This script requires Extension:TextExtracts to be installed and active. The script will only generate descriptions for pages that don't have a description property set in the page properties table.

You can force the generation using the --force flag, this will overwrite any description already present.

A list of namespace ids needs to be given in order for the script to work:

# Run only in main namespace
php maintenance/GenerateDescription.php 0

# Run only in main namespace and overwrite existing descriptions
php maintenance/GenerateDescription.php --force 0

# Run in namespace 1234, overwrite descriptions and remove dangling sentences
php maintenance/GenerateDescription.php --force --cleanSentence 1234

Bekannte Probleme

Extension:PageImages will add an og:image tag if an image is found on the page. If another image was set using WikiSEO, both og:image will be added to the page.

Weitere Informationen:

Setting $wgPageImagesOpenGraph = false; disables PageImages setting any og:image* meta tags.

Additionally you can set $wgWikiSeoOverwritePageImage = true; to overwrite the image set by PageImages with the one specified by WikiSEO.

Weitere Details

This extension is not a drop-in replacement for the previous version of this extension from tinymighty/wiki-seo.

If you only want to override the display title on pages (not append words to it), you might also look at the DISPLAYTITLE tag in combination with the Manual:$wgAllowDisplayTitle and Manual:$wgRestrictDisplayTitle settings.

Note that this extension stores relevant properties in the page_props table. Its parser hook persists previous properties when invoked since commit 78245b3 (released in v2.6.6). This enables administrators to set these properties manually with other tools like Extension:PageProperties . On the other hand removed parameters from parser function call will persist in the page. These outdated properties can be purged by temporarily removing the magic words or disabling the extension, then reparsing the page.

schema.org

The SchemaOrg generator will set a SearchAction property based on Special:Search.[4]

The properties publisher and author will be set to Organization with the name set to the content of $wgSitename.

dateModified will be automatically set by fetching the latest revision timestamp. If no published_time is set, datePublished will be set to the latest revision timestamp.

OpenGraph

article:modified_time will be automatically set by fetching the latest revision timestamp. If no published_time is set, article:published_time will be set to the latest revision timestamp.

Integration

WikiSEO will use descriptions provided by Extension:Description2 .
