You can create a K2 tag menu item and add the Meta Description and Keywords at the menu metadata options.

Yes, but I still need get tag name (variable) in template, because I need to add descritption for this tag page.

My idea is to make tags pages same as categories pages.
Users should not see the difference between these pages.

Hi Krikor,
I paste this code at the top.

My idea is to add new columns in k2_tags mysql table - description, meta description, meta title, icon.

So, I will be able to build tags pages, that will looks same as categories.

I think, that this feature should be a part of K2...

But right now I trying to make it with hack, and I not sure, that code above is correct, and it will not work slow (I'm not programmer).

Thanks.
