Define your metadata fields configuration
Content Publisher allows you to enrich the content defined in the main document body by defining a set of metadata fields that can be used by content creators. These metadata fields are typically used for purposes such as defining the HTML metadata used for SEO, setting the open graph  content used by social platforms when embedding your content, defining any sort of categorization of your content, identifying related content or assets and many more.
As different users of Content Publisher might have different needs for these fields, we made this feature customizable and extensible. Each Content Publisher customer can define the fields that fits their specific needs.
Although the system is very configurable, there are four fields which are mandatory for any Content Publisher collection, which relates to standard needs valid for every user of Content Publisher.
Title | Typically used for the HTML TITLE TAG as well as the main title in any of Content Publisher user interface. |
Slug | Technical field used to define the final url of the full view of the content on the website. |
Description | Typically used for the HTML META DESCRIPTION tag that is used by search engine and other systems. Also used for the Open Graph description field and used for navigation within sites (in content cards). |
Image | Typically used for the main Open Graph image used by social media platforms when they embed the content, as well as for any internal visual representing the content (thumbnails or content cards), as well as the WordPress thumbnail image when Content Publisher is used together with WordPress.. |
Tags | A list of tags that is typically used by WordPress to match with the standard WordPress tag field. This can be used for any other needs for navigation or categorization of content on any site. |
Each Content Publisher administrator can define its own set of custom fields.
Custom fields are of different types:
- Text
- Text area
- Boolean
- Date
- File (previously named URL)
- List
If any other field type is required, please contact us or suggest it on our roadmap page.
You can set your custom fields directly in the Gdocs add-on.
This feature will also be ported to the main content management web application.
See below the interaction to define, update or delete fields.
