Meta Tags
Nuxt 3 provides several different ways to manage your meta tags.
- Through your
nuxt.config
. - Through the
useHead
composable - Through global meta components
You can customize title
, titleTemplate
, base
, script
, noscript
, style
, meta
, link
, htmlAttrs
and bodyAttrs
.
Nuxt currently uses vueuse/head
to manage your meta tags, but implementation details may change.
Migration
- In your
nuxt.config
, renamehead
tometa
. Consider moving this shared meta configuration into yourapp.vue
instead. (Note that objects no longer have ahid
key for deduplication.) - If you need to access the component state with
head
, you should migrate to usinguseHead
. You might also consider using the built-in meta-components. - If you need to use the Options API, there is a
head()
method you can use when you usedefineNuxtComponent
.
Example: useHead
<script>export default { data: () => ({ title: 'My App', description: 'My App Description' }) head () { return { title: this.title, meta: [{ hid: 'description', name: 'description', content: this.description }] } }}</script>
Example: Built-in Meta-components
Nuxt 3 also provides meta components that you can use to accomplish the same task. While these components look similar to HTML tags, they are provided by Nuxt and have similar functionality.
<script>export default { head () { return { title: 'My App', meta: [{ hid: 'description', name: 'description', content: 'My App Description' }] } }}</script>
- Make sure you use capital letters for these component names to distinguish them from native HTML elements (
<Title>
rather than<title>
). - You can place these components anywhere in your template for your page.
Example: Options API
Nuxt 3 (Options API)
<script>// if using options API `head` method you must use `defineNuxtComponent`export default defineNuxtComponent({ head (nuxtApp) { // `head` receives the nuxt app but cannot access the component instance return { meta: [{ name: 'description', content: 'This is my page description.' }] } }})</script>
