Optionally show text fields as a multi-line textarea

Default 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.

255 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.

Being keywords not considered by search engines and being keyword stuffing considered a bad behaviour, probably 255 is even too much :-)

If 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.

Duplicate of #1715262: Meta description too short - the maximum meta tag length has been bumped to 1024 characters.

not 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.

oops, changed status for the testbot

Given 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.

Regardless of relevancy; clients still ask for ability to add keywords.

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