{% component seoTags %}Configuration for this plugin is handled through a configuration file. In order to modify the configuration values and get started you can copy the plugins/winter/seo/config/config.php file to config/winter/seo/config.php and make your changes there.
Use the Meta class to add <meta> tags that will be rendered by the [seoTags] component. Examples:
use Winter\SEO\Classes\Meta;
// Adds <meta name="og:type" content="article">
Meta::set('og:type', 'article');
// Appends a meta tag to the collection; allowing for full control of the
// attributes used as well as preventing it from being overridden and / or
// enabling multiple tags with the same name to be added.
Meta::append([
'name' => 'og:type',
'content' => 'article',
'example_attribute' => 'the_cake_is_a_lie',
]);
// Overrides `og:type` because it was set later in the request
Meta::set('og:type', 'article');
// Retreive a specific meta tag by its name
Meta::get('og:type');
// Retrieve all meta tags currently set in this request
Meta::all()
// Clear all previously set meta tags and start fresh from this point on in the request
Meta::refresh();Use the Link class to add <link> tags that will be rendered by the [seoTags] component. Examples:
use Winter\SEO\Classes\Link;
// Adds <link rel="base_url" rel="https://example.com">
Link::set('base_url', 'https://example.com');
// Appends a link tag to the collection; allowing for full control of the
// attributes used as well as preventing it from being overridden and / or
// enabling multiple tags with the same name to be added.
Link::append([
'rel' => 'preload',
'href' => 'https://example.com/logo.png',
'as' => 'image',
]);
// Overrides `base_url` because it was set later in the request
Link::set('base_url', url()->current());
// Retreive a specific link tag by its name
Link::get('base_url');
// Retrieve all link tags currently set in this request
Link::all()
// Clear all previously set link tags and start fresh from this point on in the request
Link::refresh();
