Replaced by Metatag's metatag_custom_tags Submodule!
The Custom Meta module has been merged into the Metatag module as part of its 2.1.0 release. The functionality of Custom Meta is now available through the new metatag_custom_tags submodule, which offers an enhanced and more advanced interface for managing custom meta tags.
Important Information:
- Custom Meta End of Life (EOL): Custom Meta will reach its EOL with the release of Metatag 2.1.0. It will be officially marked unsupported on 7 November 2025, one year after the release of Metatag 2.1.0.
- Migration Note: There is no direct migration path from Custom Meta to metatag_custom_tags. Site builders will need to manually re-create their custom meta tags using the improved admin UI provided by the metatag_custom_tags submodule.
For continued support and access to advanced meta tag management, please transition to the Metatag module by enabling the metatag_custom_tags submodule.
While Nodewords (D6) and Metatags (D7) work well for adding things like Abstract, Description, Keywords, Robots, Copyright and even OpenGraph meta tags to your content, we continually found ourselves backed into a situation where we would have to release a tpl.php update or write a custom module to inject custom meta elements onto our platform.
A good example is the Smart App Banner from Apple. We received the info for early adoption but had to deploy code to implement it. After adding one too many contrib modules or writing one too many custom modules to add small or bulk custom meta tags to our system, we came up with the idea for custom meta.
The module allows you to define and manage custom meta tags. Select the Meta attribute (property, name, HTTP-equiv) and set the value and content value in the format, and the module will add your meta tags to all non-admin content for your site.
I'd be happy to iterate on this and add additional functionality. Leave a note in the issue queue if you have a feature request.
Token Support
As of 7.x-1.4, Custom Meta supports token replacement. Enable the token module and select "Browse available tokens" on the administration page.
Page filter
Current 7.x-dev branch includes code to filter which pages to include the tags.
