Wed, 12 May 2010 03:20:06 +0000 http://paulekaiser.com/?p=263#comment-37 Great write up on NetTuts.com Paul. I've a question, and I'm sure your knowledge of WordPress custom Taxonomies can answer it. I adopted custom taxonomies when wp 2.8 was released - Justin Tadlock was the eye-opener into this new World of WordPress organisation. But I've struggled with getting correctly formatted meta descriptions after v2.91 broke all my conditional if is_tax title and descriptions (which were hard-coded into my header.php). More info on that here - http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/10721#comment:6 and http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/11904. I've since been able to get the meta title functioning, though in an automated fashion (which is not quite good enough: it does work for all titles, but the format is less than ideal for others - and after all, 1 single title format for every custom taxonomy is is not going to work where you have more than a few CTs). So my question ..... is there any way to set a custom taxonomy's meta description and/or title..? I'd prefer to custom write each CTs, but would settle for any solution at this frustrated stage.

I've been reading Seth Godin's "Linchpin," which is where my thoughts are centering around right now. In "Linchpin," there's a good part that talks about the importance of "Shipping," that is... actually going the full stretch to your goal, instead of switching gears 3/4 of the way through.
