Hello I have a problem with the length of the meta tag description. If I try to insert the text in the meta tag description through "Mange SEF Urls" I have only a certain amount of character I can enter.

If I use the "Manage Meta TAGS" I can insert how many character I want but when I save the page it will cut my meta tag description to a certain amount of character.

What can I do so I can insert the meta description tag as long as I want?
The only way is to insert it directly from database?

Hello,

JoomSEF only accepts 255 characters for meta tags. You can change the "metakey" and "metadesc" columns in your database in "jos_sefurls" table from VARCHAR to TEXT, that way the Manage Meta Tags page will allow you to store longer text.
