I'd like to help co-maintain the Page Title module. I have one goal in mind with this offer: I'd like to deprecate it and move everyone over to using the Metatag module already. In the process of doing so I'd also like to make sure that the upgrade path is solid. Please let me know what you think.

No response to this issue, so I contacted nicholasThompson.

Sorry been insanely busy!

I'm not against the idea of deprecating it as I have no time to maintain it anymore.

Does MetaTag do everything Page Title does?

  • Per content type patterns
  • Per entity page title override from the main entity title/label

I know metatag supports tokens on the entity.

tl;dr: Yes.

Metatag has an internal hierarchy:

  • Global defaults
    • Entity type defaults
      • Entity bundle defaults
        • Per-entity overrides

Each level can be controlled individual for each item, e.g. you can have one global default, a different default for nodes than what's used for terms, a different one for each content type, and then finally override the values for individual nodes; at each level if there isn't a value for a particular meta tag it inherits from the parent.

Polite bump? :-)

Per the official process for dealing with abandoned projects I'm transferring this to the Project Ownership project to politely request that I be added as a comaintainer so that I can work towards the plan of deprecating this module and pushing people to Metatag instead.
