Typo3: How to insert the Page Title dynamically into the Description meta tag

Question

Using the Introduction Package 4.5 (Not templa voila)

The page.meta template sets the meta tag 'description' in Setup:

page.meta {
description = {$plugin.meta.description}
}

. . . and the description string value is defined in the root template Constant:

plugin.meta {
description = description string goes here
}

But now how do I dynamically include each Page Title in the Description meta tag? Something like

 description = {plugin.meta.description}{pageTitle.value} ?

Any clues will be appreciated.

Answer 1

To put this in a single line you could use .dataWrap on description like this:

page.meta.description.dataWrap = {$plugin.meta.description} - {field:title}
