How do I output the GEOUrl for my pages; it worked in 6.x-1.0, but I can't find it in the latest version? Thanks

avpadernoTo set the meta tags geo.url and icbm, you need to set the values for the form fields listed under the fieldset ; it is possible to set those values only for nodes, and users.
Comment #2
nirad commentedSo if you have a content type that has a location (via the location module) it automatically adds the GeoURL metatag?
Comment #3
avpadernoBoth the meta tags are populated from the data set with location.module.
Probably the module should also hide its own location fieldset in the case location.module is enabled; I am not sure if I will add that feature, anyway.
Comment #4
jamesoakleyI'm not sure I understand where to find the fieldset Location? I don't want to set the GEOURl and ICBM tags on a node by node basis; prior to upgrading from 6.x-1.0, I had a default value set that propogated throughout the site. Is this a deleted feature in the newest version of Nodewords? If so, what was the rationale for removing the functionality? If not, how do I still do this please?
Comment #5
avpadernoIt is not possible to set a default value for the location meta tags, as those values would be used also for the error pages, all the pages of the site when it is offline, the tracker page, and all the custom pages. That is surely not desired (what is the location of an error page, anyway?).
Location meta tags can only be associated with nodes, and user profiles.

mutualadvantage commentedBefore upgrading to the latest security version I had the ability to set geo location to taxonomy terms. I had set up a taxonomy for 'towns' which was populated with local town names. Each of the towns in my county was given a geo location. That option has now gone and so has the data.
I'm relatively new to Drupal but isn't a taxonomy term a node? As such it did seem very logical to use the geourls in the format above.

hass commentedI'd like to define a global geolocation for the complete site as in past.
Comment #8
avpadernoTaxonomy terms are not nodes; taxonomy terms are associated to nodes, but are not nodes.
Comment #9
dbeall commentedagree with hass #7, I have been looking for the geo tag which was in the past release.
I figured the issue would come up soon enough. I use them for local business sites that have only anonymous users. I suppose the new way is to add them in the page.tpl file or am i missing something.
Comment #10
avpadernoSee comment #1.
I am marking this report as fixed as it has already gotten an answer.
Comment #11
hass commentedThere seems still no global setting restored and #1 does not answer this.
Comment #12
jamesoakleyI was the OP, so perhaps I may share my thoughts on this one...
It seems to me that there is a debate to be had over whether a global setting for GeoURL is a good idea or not. Some will think it is, and some will think it is not. However, it would be appreciated if the module developers could humour those of us who think it is a good idea by allowing us to do what they think is a bad site design. That's to say: Just because some people think globally setting GeoURL is a bad idea, that's not a good enough reason to remove the functionality from the module. It may have been a good reason not to write the functionality in the first place, but once it's in, it is a step backwards to remove it and thus to force site administrators to remove their GeoURL.
Just my 2p/2c worth.
Comment #13
avpadernoShould the location be allowed also for the taxonomy terms, and vocabularies? I think that somebody could like to set the location for a vocabulary that is associated to a town.
Comment #14
avpadernoThe code I committed allows to set the location meta tags in all the forms where it is possible to set the value for the meta tags.
Comment #15
dbeall commentedI spoke to soon, this is working. There may have been an issue with Boost and/or the cache holding it up from showing in the html code.
This new version of nodewords does have some really neat features. Nodewords has always been a great module, we just have to learn how to use it.
Comment #16
jamesoakleyJust to say thanks for putting this back
