There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Metatag Simple Widget Brief history How old: created in Jul 2025 by Jim Vomero (njim) of Four Kitchens Versions available: 1.0.0 and 1.1.0, the latter of which works with Drupal core 10 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage No open issues Usage stats: 1 site Module features and usage With this module installed, in the form configuration for your content types, you'll see a new "Simplified meta tags form" widget for metatag fields It's designed to provide a dramatically streamlined input for metatags, focused on only exposing the most commonly used tags, the title and description As a configuration option, you can have the widget hide default values, which for metatag fields often contain tokens, which could be confusing for Drupal neophytes The module was nominated by Dave Hansen-Lange (dalin), also of Four Kitchens, and a co-maintainer, as well as a fellow Canadian I also wanted to give a shout out to the Drupal.org Infrastructure Working Group. In the lead-up to this recording there was a media server failure that brought down the entire site. They worked as furiously as Santa's elves and were able to quickly get the site back up. It was a reminder for me of how much we all (and this segment in particular) depend on the tireless work they do. In this season of giving please consider supporting the Drupal Association, and if you already do, maybe see if you could give a little more.
