Not that I know of, although if you already have the META tags ready you
can insert them to every page using HTML Nugget on Page plugin.

Every 'site'? Judging from your earlier comment I don't think you mean
that, since the plugin is applied site-wide. If you meant every 'page', I
don't think having different meta tags on every single page makes a lot of
sense. Not only do modern search engines place low priority on meta tags,
but having keywords generated on the meta tags would be redundant since
the search engine would do that anyway regardless of the presense of meta
tags. And the description would need to encompass at least a category.
The entries you write by itself should pretty much be self-describing.
Having said that, how 'fine' or 'coarse' did you actually have in mind in
applying different meta tags? Different on every entry? Every category? etc.

A plugin which spews out meta-tags per-entry would be fairly easy.
But I agree with Wesley - modern search engines no longer use that. The only reason I can see where this would be good is for spamming sites or "SEO"-pages...
Pebosi, for what kind of a site would you need such functionality?

Hi,
well i also need such a funcionality, but a little different - i would like every single entry page to have keywords and description simply from post title and a few words described in template.
I dug a little deeper, and as i understood i should modify a little entries.tpl
Well actually i should insert a part of index.tpl where <HEAD> is desribed to entries.tpl... Am i thinking right or wrong?
