TND SEO

Requirements

HUGO 0.54.0 and above.

Install

git submodule add https://github.com/theNewDynamic/hugo-component-tnd-seo.git components/tnd-seo/

WARNING: Make sure the directory for the component is in your theme directory as tnd-seo

Drop the following where appropriate

{{ if templates.Exists "partials/tnd-seo/print.html" }}
  {{ partial "tnd-seo/print.html" . }}
{{ end }}

The above partials, will look for content information and build an Data object to be printed in SEO tags (og, twitter card etc...). If you need to alternate the data model, you can do so by adding ot your project a layouts/partials/tnd-seo/extend.html partial and add to it as explained here.

Options

Options live in an seo object in your site params.

params:
  seo:
    # overides .Site.Title
    site_name: MyWebsite 
    # Used for articles without images
    default_image: "/images/default.jpg"
    # if true will use the SEO data object to output an json+ld script tag.
    jsonld: true
    # if true will display a human readable overlay on everypage to monitor SEO data object (only if dev != production)
    debug: true
