      Hello,

      First of all, I would like to make it clear that this is not very important and I agree that meta tags are not very useful, but they have some cosmetic yet real usages too.

      Anyway, we can find this in both provsilver and subsilver's overall_header.html :

      <meta name="keywords" content="" />
      <meta name="description" content="" />
      

      This, is addition to being useless, makes it impossible for extension to set up these meta tags as wished using the overall_header_head_append event.

      I don't think phpBB should make such restriction, so I suggest to remove these too lines or at least to make them conditional with a template variable.

      I originally posted here : https://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=45907

      But I though it may finally be more appropriate to fill a bug report.

      Regards,

      dcz
