In the tag, the values are separated by a hyphen character.\n\n-   The first portion of the **description** meta tag is the value of the `forum name` field in the question record. In the example, the forum name is `Routing and Switching`.\n-   The second portion of the tag is the value of the `topic` field in the record — `Tomahawk (5000 Series)` in the example.\n-   The third portion of the tag is generated from the first 100 characters of the `body` field in the record — `My 5000 series router has been overheating since I upgraded the firware couple of days ago. Anybody`.\n\nIn addition to the **description** meta tag for a question page, the Communities application injects a **title** tag \\(highlighted in blue\\). The title is generated dynamically using two values from the **communitiy\\_question** record:\n\n-   Forum name \\(`Routing and Switching` in the example\\)\n-   Short description \\(`Router overheating after firmware upgrade` in the example\\)\n\n## Procedure\n\n1.  Navigate to **All** &gt; **Service Portal** &gt; **Pages**.\n\n2.  In the list of portal pages, click the **ID** of the page to update \\(in the example, **community\\_question**\\).\n\n    See the list of [pages in Communities that support SEO data](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/customer-service-management/communities/communities-seo-data.md).\n\n3.  On the Page form:\n\n    -   Modify or add meta tags in the **Meta tags** related list.\n    -   Modify the **Dynamic page title** by modifying the structure of the title text or by modifying or replacing the variables that generate the text. The variable definitions appear in the **Dynamic page variables** related list.\n    \\[Omitted image \"seo-page-form.png\"\\] Alt text: Two screenshots: first displaying page details and highlighting the Dynamic page title field, second highlighting the Meta tags tab and Dynamic page title variables tab with the related list.\n\n\n**Parent Topic:**[Community pages that support SEO data](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/customer-service-management/communities/communities-seo-data.md)\n\n"}}
