Hello @loudmu

Thanks for reaching out to us.

Can you provide minimal reproduction and more information? Like:

  1. What version of prismic clients are you using?
  2. What function are you using for templating using asText() or asHTML()?
  3. Can you try the latest version using the following command?
    npm update prismic-ts-codegen

I am looking forward to hearing from you back.

Thanks,
Priyanka

hello Priyanka..
The Meta_description field is meta tag so it should be text only.

This issue has not been addressed in the latest slicemachine-ui update.. it's annoying because I have to delete the meta_description rich-text field and replace it with key text field every time I want to create a new page-type.
meta fields should always be key-text as the go in head element

Hello @loudmu

I agree with you. Meta Description should be Key Text, not Rich Text, to simplify passing the value to <meta> tags. I will pass this feedback on to my team.
As it currently is configured, meta_description would require the asText() helper to convert to plain text. As an immediate solution, you can use meta_description like this:

import { asText } from "@prismicio/client";

// To use meta_description as plain text:
<meta name="description" content={asText(page.data.meta_description)} />

Thanks,
Priyanka
