DEPRECATED

This Craft CMS 2.x plugin is no longer supported, but it is fully functional, and you may continue to use it as you see fit. The license also allows you to fork it and make changes as needed for legacy support reasons.

The Craft CMS 3.x version of this plugin can be found here: craft-seomatic and can also be installed via the Craft Plugin Store in the Craft CP.

Humans.txt authorship

Humans.txt is an initiative for knowing the people behind a website. It's a TXT file that contains information about the different people who have contributed to building the website.

SEOmatic automatically generates Humans.txt authorship accreditation with the following tag:

<link type="text/plain" rel="author" href="/humans.txt" />

The rendered humans.txt file uses the following template by default (you're free to change it as you wish):

/* TEAM */

{% if seomaticCreator.name is defined and seomaticCreator.name %}
Creator: {{ seomaticCreator.name }}
{% endif %}
{% if seomaticCreator.url is defined and seomaticCreator.url %}
URL: {{ seomaticCreator.url }}
{% endif %}
{% if seomaticCreator.description is defined and seomaticCreator.description %}
Description: {{ seomaticCreator.description }}
{% endif %}
