Chapter 9. Adding Meta Tags & Additional HTML

───────────────────────────────────────

The advanced editor was added to ShutterBug's content window to accommodate

those users who have requested a place to add extra meta tags and their own

additional HTML. If you don't know what meta tags are, then the advanced edit

window is most likely something you will never need to access.

Because ShutterBug is a WYSIWYG web authoring tool (and not a HTML authoring

tool), it already outputs the correct HTML for all browsers on cross-platforms. We

strongly recommend not adding your own HTML unless you are experienced in HTML

coding. If any of your HTML is incorrect, this may result in rendering problems in

different browsers. We do not support problems encountered from incorrect HTML.

To access the advanced editing options, click the Content tab to reveal the content

window. Select Website from your navigation list. Click the Advanced button located at

the top right corner of the interface. The right side of the interface will open a pane

containing the fields to enter META tags and additional HTML.

Meta Tags: meta tags allow you to specify a language for your site, as well as

description and keyword tags for search engines to search on. Note: Most search

engines today do not use meta tags to determine content or search ranking. Most only

search by the actual content on your web pages.

Additional HTML: you can add your own <head> and <body> content. If you have

an external style sheet, you can add it into these areas of the HTML output, however

we do not provide support for this.
