Head Meta Pro: WordPress Meta Tag Controls

Set tags for WordPress views and content types

Head Meta Pro is the paid edition of Head Meta Data. It controls tags added to the head section of WordPress pages, extending website-wide defaults with settings for the home page, posts, pages, archives, search pages, and custom post types.

Customize supported tags, add custom tags, or disable unwanted ones. A live preview shows meta tags and custom tags. The Meta Tags box lets you add custom tags to an individual post or page when its settings need to differ from broader defaults, and it integrates with SEO add-ons.

Use content and website details as values

Shortcodes can insert a post title, excerpt, date, author, categories, tags, site title, site tagline, or current year. On single post views, these values can reflect the current content; on home, archive, and search views, shortcode output can use general site or view information. Head Meta Pro also includes more than 40 advanced shortcut variables, including %POST_AUTHOR% and %ARCHIVE_TYPE%.

Configure social tags and page-level additions

Dedicated settings cover Facebook Open Graph and X (Twitter) tags, both globally and for each supported page-view type. The Pro edition includes meta tags beyond the free version, including a dedicated setting for the image_src link tag. You can also add custom scripts and styles to a post or page view.

Installation and process

1. Install Head Meta Pro in your WordPress site.
2. Open the add-on settings and configure default, page-view, and social tags.
3. Use shortcut variables or custom values where appropriate.
4. Review the live preview, then add post- or page-specific settings through the Meta Tags box.
