Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.When I enable the setting for a node type to inherit the default meta tags, the meta tags are not shown (both the node, and the default ones).
I have not found a way to use the default meta tags; whatever I do, they don't appear in the Drupal output.

fractile81 commentedYou're using PHP4, right (can't remember who said they were)? If you click the "Show empty tags?" option on the node's configuration, does anything show up? What are your Metatag settings, both default and node?
Comment #2
avpadernoI am using PHP4.
"Show empty tags?" does not seem to work, as the empty tags are always shown.

fractile81 commentedSo you're saying that you always see the <meta> tags in your HTML with the right "name", but the "content" is always empty?
Comment #4
avpadernoWhenever the Show empty tags? option is set or not, I get, i.e.,
<meta name="description" content="" />for a node which has not associated any value to the description meta tag.That actually happens for this blog entry, where the option is not set. It seems it happens when there is a single meta tag which is not empty; in that case, all the tags are shown, whenever their content is empty or not.
Then there is the other problem with the Inherit default Metatags? option which seems to remove any meta tags associated with the node, default or not.

fractile81 commentedWould you be willing to give me a dump of your int_meta_fields table? Or the values for any variables in the variable table that begins with 'int_meta'? I need to figure out how to reproduce this, and I'm not quite sure how. Contact me through Drupal.org if you're not comfortable posting anything here. If you want to but aren't sure how, let me know as well and I can get you a couple of SQL queries that will help.
Thanks for your help with this!

avpadernoThe files I include here are made with a Mac, and use the LF character like line terminator.
I hope they can help.
Comment #7
avpadernoI am closing this issue since it's for a Drupal version that isn't supported.
