Astra Meta Settings

When it comes to customizing WordPress websites, the Astra theme is well-known for being easy-to-use and user-friendly features.

One standout feature that defines Astra is its Page Meta Settings.

These settings give you a special method to control how each page and post looks. You can make small adjustments to how your website looks to make it just right for each person who visits.

In this article, we go through Astra’s Page Meta Settings, exploring their capabilities and how they grant you the power to shape your website content.

What is Astra’s Page Meta Settings & How It Works

Astra’s Page Meta Settings lets you manage the appearance and behavior of each individual page and post on your WordPress website.

Unlike broader global settings that impact your entire site, these settings are page-specific.

To illustrate, let’s say you enabled a primary header on the entire website in the Customizer settings. Still, you wish to disable it only on the “Pricing” page so people may not get distracted by different links while they’re about to make a purchase.

This means you can customize each page according to its unique requirements, offering a user-friendly experience to your website visitors.

This Page Meta Settings lets you have a lot of control over how your website looks. You can change how things are customized, like headers and footers, for just one page or post.

This makes your website more interesting for people to explore and is different from using the same design everywhere.

How to Access Astra’s Page Meta Settings

To access the Page Meta Settings, you can follow these simple steps:

1. Click on the Astra icon in the block editor.
2. Then, you can see the Astra Settings panel on the right side of the screen.

Once you’ve opened the Astra Settings panel, you’ll find a range of options readily available to you, including:

• Container Layout
• Sidebar
• Disable Elements
  • Disable Header
  • Disable Footer
• Advanced Settings
  • Header Rows
  • Transparent Header
  • Sticky Header

Now that you understand the importance of Astra’s page meta setting, let’s learn how to pin/unpin the sidebar panel.

This helps you either keep the panel always visible or let it hide as usual. Just click the star icon on the top-right of the sidebar to control this and make your work easier.

What Additional Features does Astra Pro offer

When you upgrade to Astra Pro, besides the default Astra themes settings mentioned above, you will see additional options like

• Page Header
• Sticky Header

However, these Astra Pro options will display only when related addons are activated. You can activate these addons at Astra > Dashboard > Welcome > Astra Pro Modules.

With these options, you can add a particular Page Header layout for the specific page or post.

To do this, click on the Page Header dropdown, and select the layout from the list. Also, you can enable or disable the sticky header on each page or post individually.

To illustrate, let’s say you enabled a primary header on the entire website in the Customizer settings. Still, you wish to disable it only on the “Pricing” page and want to add a customized page header of your choice, so people may not get distracted by different links while they’re about to make a purchase.

In addition, you can bulk edit the page meta settings on multiple pages/posts. Check the “How to Bulk Edit Astra Meta Settings on Multiple Pages & Posts at Once?” article for more details.
