Panels Metadata fields on template

Metadata fields are used to limit specific metadata for pages that are based on a certain template. You add the metadata field under Website settings and enable it on one or more templates as needed.

Here you can learn how to enable a metadata field on a template, how to delete a metadata field on a template, and how to change the order of existing metadata fields.

When you enable a metadata field on a template, you can choose which parts of the page you want to use it for. You can choose between:
