Is it possible and if so how to set the meta keywords on a page with the API?

Where from?

Page.Keywords is one option: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/api-docs#article=28063288-5739-d758-4a05-7e53d73e99a3

PageView.Meta is another option.

Depends on what you need it for.

I do not think we render keywords to the frontend anymore as it is kind of deprecated...

Hi Nicolai

I am not sure I get what you mean by "Where from?". I just want to overwrite the meta keywords tag in the markup.

I have tried adding these lines to the master template:

PageView.Meta.AddTag("keywords", "my special keywords")

That didn't render my keywords. So have also tried:

Dynamicweb.Content.Page page = Pageview.Page;

page.Keywords = "my special keywords";

But no luck here either.

Because it has meaning... You are setting the value too late in the rendering.

The master template is what is rendering the meta data - so adding things to the meta data in that template is a little too late, see this thread from today:

As a side note, using meta keywords these days...? For what reason?

Got it working by doing it this way:

    public class PageLoaded : NotificationSubscriber
    {
        public override void OnNotify(string notification, NotificationArgs args)
        {
            Standard.Page.LoadedArgs loadedArgs = args as Standard.Page.LoadedArgs;

            loadedArgs.PageViewInstance.Meta.AddTag("keywords", "my special keywords");
        }
    }

Thanks Nicolai
