I am new to this. Any help will be appreciated.

I installed nodewords and added metatags (keywords, copyright, description) to my front page and nodes of certain content type. The Front page tags work fine. In my Content type nodes, keywords and copyright tags work fine. But the description tag doesn't show up when I do 'view page source in Chrome browser'. It looks fine in 'Node edit' form, but when I publish the node, it doesn't show up.

Please let me know if I can provide more information.

Version: 6.x-1.3 » 6.x-1.13

Did you check the module's main settings (admin/content/nodewords) and check it off to be output? You might also try the new 6.x-1.14-beta1 which will output all tags without having to specifically enable them.

Also, I presume you're using 6.x-1.13 rather than 6x-1.3? =)

Thank you for the response. I have enabled the 'Description' tag to be output in html. However, the tag doesn't get published. Is using 1.14 the only solution? Will I lose existing tags if I download and use 1.14?

Of course, you are correct. :) I am using 1.13 and not 1.3.

Please check the v6.x-1.14-beta1 release notes so you're aware of the changes, but there shouldn't be any problems using it.

Hello,

Thank you so much for this module. I found out the problem.

I was defining 'custom pages' and for those custom pages, the description tag I set in the settings will be carried over. If I try to edit in the content type edit mode and add description tags, it did not overwrite my defaults I had set in the Nodewords metatags 'custom page'.

The module works as promised. I am closing this issue.

Thanks again for support.

Any suggestions as to how I can automate the 'description' metatag? I would like to use a field in my content type to be used as a token in the 'Description' metatag. For example, 'Product A' is available with special deals on this page. Product A is the value for the Product field and it dynamically changes for each node.

Take a look at the API docs in the nodewords.api.php file.
