I made the upgrade from 1.9 to 1.11.

I report here a pair of problem, I cannot say if are bugs or personal problem in wrong settings some features.

1) Now the settings for "Front Page" works good (arenot "duplicated" inside Tracker page).
But a second Problem apper:

I have a page generated from classic default views "tracker" and I need to set this page as "NoIndex"... for ROBOTS meta settings.

So I set an "Other Page" option to give this particular setting to "tacker" page (because is a views).
But the option was ignored and the page don't show the ROBOTS Meta.

I tryed also with "Tracker page" (I actually ignore if was the right way to do that) but the result is the same: not robot tag showed.

I make something wrong or there's problem?

2) I have an home page generated by a views (the path of the views is "homepage").
How can i set nodewords to avoid Google giving me a duplicated tag error for: www.mysite.com and www.mysite.com/homepage?

This is my trial without success:
Givin to "Front Page" setting the meta key and description (ok) + an "Other page" for "homepage" link with canonical URL
Problem: the "Other page" is overwitten by default Front Page settings.

I found an external solution operating via template to set "canonical URL" in /homepage URL.
Ca i made something similar with nodewords? (problably i'm wrong but i remeber is possible ti do in old 6.x-6.10)

Thanks bye!

I removed the code that handled the tracker pages meta tags, which can be set using the other pages settings. An update function imports the meta tags previously set from the tracker page settings page.

I checked the meta tags output for http://example.com/tracker, when the page is handled by tracker.module, and when it is a view; the results are the following:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link rel="canonical" href="http://sunradio.local/dr61/tracker" />
<meta name="description" content="Track page" />
<meta name="abstract" content="track page" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="1 day" />
<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/dr61/misc/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<link rel="canonical" href="http://sunradio.local/dr61/tracker" />
<meta name="description" content="Track page" />
<meta name="abstract" content="track page" />
<meta name="revisit-after" content="1 day" />
<meta name="robots" content="noindex" />
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/dr61/misc/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

I found the reason for the first problem:

When I set the parameters for "Tracker" views page in "Other page" area, the setting for NOINDEX are not saved!

Infact, when I re-open the settings page, the NOINDEX option appear un-checked.

I hope this info could help you.

I checked the canonical URL set when visiting http://example.com, and http://example.com/frontpage (which is the view set as front page), and in both the cases it has been set to http://example.com; in this case Google should not report there are duplicated meta tags.

This is also true when using as front page http://example.com/node.

@ Dret (#2): The meta tags were saved, but not correctly loaded; see #673214: Meta tags for other pages are not correctly loaded from the database.

Sorry, but i tryed with another page generated by Views and problem is still the same... no ROBOTS meta Tag are printed.

And with the same behaviours, previously exposed: once created a new setting for a specific view page... when the same page is re-opened, the ROBOTS options are not checked and naturally they are not printed on page...

... ideas about?
Thanks, Bye!
