    Hi,
    I’m posting to follow on this (https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/20).

    In the settings page of the plugin, we have a metabox to edit globally the settings for each custom post type.

    I’d love to have the same for the custom taxonomies. For instance, I have a taxonomy “People”, that I’d love to edit globally

    My taxonomy is public, and I can edit each term (but what I’m trying to achieve is global settings, not per term).

    All the best!

    Hello!

    Taxonomies don’t always consist of pages in WordPress. The meta box you are referring to is for Custom Post Type Archives, not for taxonomies.

    To get to the chase and eliminate miscommunication, could you please share how exactly you registered the “People” taxonomy, which page(s) thereof you wish to configure specifically, and what you’d like to configure?

    Does the “People” taxonomy consist of terms (i.e., categories/tags)? If so, you should find various robots settings at “SEO Settings > Robots Meta Settings > Indexing/Following/Archiving,” which will affect all terms in the taxonomy but can be overwritten on a per-term basis.

    Hi!

    thank you.

    Yes, I know the metabox is for post type archives and not for taxonomies. I wanted to know if there was something similar for Taxonomies.

    I have terms in my taxonomy. I registered it with the Extended CPT library. All is publicly queryable. I can edit each term. And in the “Robots Meta Settings > Indexing/Following/Archiving” metabox, I can see my taxonomies and handle indexing/archiving/following.

    What I’m trying to do is edit the default title and the default description of terms. For instance, for the people taxonomy, I have “People: term title” and I’d rather change it for something more accurate.

    I’ll do it with a filter!

    Ah, yes, I understand it now!

    This feature is planned for a future extension; most of the code has already been written for other purposes, so practically only the interface needs to be designed: https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/140.

    For now, indeed, a filter is the best approach.
