Introduction.
The purpose of the extension is to enable Magento store admins create meta tags for
product and category pages, product short and full descriptions in a very fast and
efficient way.
The extension automatically generates meta tags for each product and category
page, which don’t the tags indicated in admin panel. It works the same way for
product short and full descriptions.
So please be aware that if you’ve indicated a meta title and/or meta description (or
product short and full descriptions) for some product while editing it, the extension
will not overwrite this data.
Please read the user guide further for information on how to create templates for
meta tags and descriptions and what variables to use.

Please use ‘Product Meta Title’ field to create a template for meta title
tag. You can use the following variables for meta tag templates:
- all attributes values, like {color}, {brand}, {price}, {special_price},
{short_description}, etc
- store info: {store_view}, {store}, {website}
- categories info: {category} for current category and {categories} for
full category list (as in the breadcrumbs).
For example, for meta title ‘Buy black
HTC Touch Diamond from HTC for
$750.00 only at your_website_name!’
the template would be ‘Buy {color}
{name} from {manufacturer|brand} for
{price} only at {website}!’.
To create templates for meta title and meta Please use ‘Product Meta Description’
description tags and product descriptions field to create a template for meta
please go to admin panel -> System -> description tag. You can use the same
Configuration -> Meta Tags Templates. variables as for meta title tag.

You can also use complex variables like
{brand|manufacturer|provider}. These
variables work great, if for some products
you use manufacturer attribute and for
others brand or provider attributes. So for
products with brand attribute, brand value
will be used for meta tags; for products with
manufacturer attribute, manufacturer value
will be used and so on.

6. Copyright © 2011 amasty.com 3. Product description templates
You can also use optional variables in square
parenthesis ‘[]’ both for product descriptions and
meta tag templates. Optional variables will be
processed only if products use attributes contained
within variable. For example we have optional
variable [by {manufacturer|brand}]. If a product
has neither manufacturer nor brand attributes, the
variable will not be used for descriptions/meta tags
of this product. This way you can create very flexible
templates with optional components, which will be
used only appropriately.
Please use ‘Product Full
Description’ field to create a
template for product
description. You can use the
same variables as for meta tags.
Please use ‘Product Short
Description’ field to create a
template for short product
description. You can use the
same variables as for meta tags.
