Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.The text input for the Keywords have 128 characters limit.
Using tokens this limit could easily achieved with only 3,4 tokens. So maybe a textarea will fit better for this.
I'm not sure also about the page title.
Maybe this approach could be used for manual inserting of Metatags on Entities editing.

Dave ReidDefault for text fields has been increased to 255 with http://drupalcode.org/project/metatags.git/commit/1c97f4c. You'll need to clear caches for it to take affect.

liquidcms CreditAttribution: liquidcms commented255 is better; but is there an HTML limit for this? i don't think so; so i'd have to agree with @vasike that should likely be a textarea.

Scott M. Sanders CreditAttribution: Scott M. Sanders commentedIf you want more keywords, use this alongside: http://drupal.org/project/metatags_quick
Add a keywords field, give it a nice big limit (cannot be changed later), then use the new keywords field instead.

DamienMcKennaDuplicate of #1715262: Meta description too short - the maximum meta tag length has been bumped to 1024 characters.
Comment #7
liquidcms CreditAttribution: liquidcms commentednot sure why this is marked as a duplicate of the case re: description being too short as this is about keywords; but maybe both fixed on that issue (although no mention of it).
anyway, great that this has been bumped to 1024 characters; but seems a little silly to have to try to edit this in a 60 character textfield; so this patch makes it a textarea like the others.

DamienMcKennaGiven how irrelevant the keyword field is in today's SEO world, I'm not sure this is worth it. I might be willing to consider an advanced option that converts *all* textfield fields into textareas though.
Comment #12
liquidcms CreditAttribution: liquidcms commentedRegardless of relevancy; clients still ask for ability to add keywords.

DamienMcKennaLeaving this as Active and as a Feature Request as it isn't a Bug Report.
