SEO Tags Generator — automatic creation of Title and Meta-Description tags for OpenCart 2.x & 3.x 3.13.2

The SEO Tags Generator module solves the problem of automatically filling in title and meta description tags in OpenCart.

The module helps you follow Google’s recommendations from the section “Create informative page descriptions for Google Search” (Russian version: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/snippet?hl=ru#meta-descriptions

). For example, it includes guidelines such as:

• Make the description as informative as possible (include price, key attributes, manufacturer, rating, etc.)
• The description does not necessarily have to consist only of complete sentences (!). Add structured information about the page. For example, the meta description below clearly presents structured data and gives a good understanding of the product: Author: A. V. Thor. Illustrator: V. Gog. Price: 399 UAH. Length: 84 pages. Category: Children’s books. Rating: 4.8. Ships the same day.
• Use automation tools

The module works by retrieving up-to-date product information from the database and inserting it into meta tags at the moment the page loads. This happens simultaneously with how raw data (as seen in the admin panel) is rendered into a well-designed storefront view.

2. The module is provided “as is”.
3. As the author, I reserve the right to include your website (domain and/or logo) in my portfolio as an example of module usage. If you do not want this, you can select the option “Do not use my website in examples (+5.00 USD)” when placing your order.

How the Module Works

• If meta tags are already filled but not suitable for SEO, select the option “Generate meta tags even if already filled in admin”. If they are empty, choose “Only if empty in admin”.
• In the module settings, you define templates (formulas) for generating meta tags—creating readable, logical, and informative phrases.
• In the product/category/manufacturer admin page, you will find a block called “Preview of generated result in SEO Tags Generator module”, where you can see how meta tags will appear to search engines.

• Pagination numbering support for category/manufacturer pages:

• 90% open-source code (since version 3.5.0), with only the licensing library encoded
