Field
Purpose

Default browser tab / search title when pages do not override
Description
Default meta description for search and snippets
Default social image
Fallback Open Graph image when pages lack a cover
Character limits apply — the inputs clamp to recommended SEO lengths.
Page-level overrides
Each page’s Page settings provide title and summary for that URL. Page cover images can serve as social previews when layouts expose them.Hierarchy:
Page metadata when set
Site SEO defaults when page fields are empty
Publishing SEO
Site SEO defaults publish with Site settings in the publish menu. Page titles and summaries publish with Page content when those pages are selected.Draft metadata in the editor does not affect live SEO until publish.
Best practices
Write unique titles per important page — avoid every page sharing the site default

Use a default social image at site level so shares never appear blank
Set cover images on key landings for richer previews

Server-rendered page content
Published Aveiro sites now include full page body and site navigation in the initial HTML response. Search engines, link-preview bots, and visitors on slow connections see your MDX content right away — not an empty article shell that fills in after JavaScript loads.
| What | Why it matters |
Page title, summary, Open Graph tags, and canonical URLs were already server-rendered. This release completes the picture for visible content and internal links.
You do not need to republish existing pages for the improvement to apply — it is a platform rendering change on the next request to your live site.
