I'm trying to add description and keywords to my Laravel pages.
Is this way working? Or there is something wrong?
@section('title')
{{trans('strings.About')}}
@stop
@section('description', 'Share text and photos with your friends and have fun')
@section('keywords', 'sharing, sharing text, text, sharing photo, photo,')
@section('robots', 'index, follow')
@section('revisit-after', 'content="3 days')
Are you extending another template that uses all these sections? They won't work on their own, they need to populate a placeholder in another template.
It should be something like:
<!-- layouts.master -->
<html>
<head>
<title>App Name - @yield('title')</title>
<meta name="description" content="@yield('description')">
<meta name="keywords" content="@yield('keywords')">
<!-- etc -->
</head>
<body>
...
</body>
</html>
And then your template should extend the other template.
@extends('layouts.master')
@section('title')
{{trans('strings.About')}}
@stop
@section('description', 'Share text and photos with your friends and have fun')
@section('keywords', 'sharing, sharing text, text, sharing photo, photo,')
@section('robots', 'index, follow')
@section('revisit-after', 'content="3 days')
At least, that is how I read their documentation: https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/blade
You can create only one section with all these important tags that I have mentioned below. And @yield this section in app layout <head> section of HTML code.
@section('meta_tags')
@if($obj)
<title>{{$obj->title}} - {{env('SITE_URL', 'Site Name')}}</title>
<meta name='description' itemprop='description' content='{{$obj->description}}' />
<?php $tags = implode(',', $obj->tags); ?>
<meta name='keywords' content='{{$tags}}' />
<meta property='article:published_time' content='{{$obj->created_at}}' />
<meta property='article:section' content='event' />
<meta property="og:description" content="{{$obj->description}}" />
<meta property="og:title" content="{{$obj->title}}" />
<meta property="og:url" content="{{url()->current()}}" />
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:locale" content="en-us" />
<meta property="og:locale:alternate" content="en-us" />
<meta property="og:site_name" content="{{env('SITE_URL', 'Site Name')}}" />
@foreach($obj->images as $image)
<meta property="og:image" content="{{$image->url}}" />
@endforeach
<meta property="og:image:url" content="{{obj->image}}" />
<meta property="og:image:size" content="300" />
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary" />
<meta name="twitter:title" content="{{$obj->title}}" />
<meta name="twitter:site" content="@BrnBhaskar" />
@endif
@endsection
