Dynamic Meta Description

Hello everyone, 
I hope this is the right section to ask this question. I'm building a Quiz Portal on CodeIgniter.
I've added meta description tag in the header view, but now that I've checked on Google, the same meta description is showing at all the pages indexed in Google. 
Can anyone please guide on how to show different meta descriptions, according to views or modules? 
Is there a library for that, or how to do it manually?

Would appreciate any help. 
Thanks

Pass it to your different page views using the views $data array.

This way you can have it in the database and load it with the page.

Hi 
I used layout view in CI4

how to do meta description, page title and so on?

can you kindly show me the code?

I create a data.php view in the vVews folder this is just a blank php file nothing in it.
It allows to have data for all the other views.

To use:

PHP Code:

$data = [
        'title'   => 'My title',
        'heading' => 'My Heading',
        'meta'    => 'My Meta',
];

echo view('_viewdata', $data);
echo view('your_layout_view');

Thank you so much InsiteFX.

I am beginner to CI4 and PHP. is it possible to share folder you have worked. So I can understand better.

There's really nothing to it, just create a _viewdata.php file in your Views folder with nothing in it.

PHP Code:

// the $data keys are the $title, $heading and $meta in the views.
// in the view where they are used. <?= $title;?>
$data = [
        'title'   => 'My title',
        'heading' => 'My Heading',
        'meta'    => 'My Meta',
];

// Makes all the data global to all views.
echo view('_viewdata', $data);

// load your layout all the above data will be there.
echo view('your_layout_view'); 


That's all there is to it, you can also use the below in your layout's

PHP Code:

// you can also include other views in the layout like below
<?= view('_navbar'); ?>

<?= view('_sidebar'); ?>

It's very easy to do.
