A lack of Joomla! 1.5 is the missing metadata for the sections and categories. It would be great to be able to enter the meta description, meta keywords, robots and author for the categories created in K2.

I third this... i have just reached the point in a project where i was optimizing pages... and guess what: nowhere to input this :(

I'm surprised to see that noone cares too much about this.
Isn't metadata an important part of onpage optimisation? I mean, i worked with K2 so far, and it does some absolutely incredible things, has thousands of options, but NOT A METADATA tab...
This is absolutely strange... I'm dazed.... we build ships that go to Mars and there isn't a table inside to eat a potato? :)
I mean, i appreciate so much this component and the effort that the guys have put into it, but it was so close to perfection and now i realize that... it isn't perfect:|. It's just 99.8% perfect... come on guys... YOU CAN MAKE IT!!!
Anyone knows if in the future it will be available? Category/Item level metadata?

I "fourth" it. ;)

A temporary trick is to enter meta tags manually in the description of the k2 catagory.
It's far from ideal but works well.

I fifth... I really need it...

@Wout , Even I type something in my meta categoty description, the page still fetch the global metadata

Any news(/pointers) on this?
Didn't realize K2 missed this functionality untill I've created several categories and loads of items...

I support this. It is absurd that this can't be done through the interface.

It's so sad that 2 years after the start of this discussion, latest version of K2 still has no option to enter meta description and keywords for a category..
