Meta Generator Confustion

I have a question regarding the meta generator referred to in the ste_layout file. I did see the post regarding this but there wasn't a resulution of it. 

I couldn't find any data files that the CGIVAR refers to that I could edit to include the information I need generated.

If I edit the ste_layout to remove the META NAME="GENERATOR" CONTENT="(CGIVAR)admin_generator_meta_text(/CGIVAR)" request, can I just then insert standard html meta tags?
Will they propogate throughout the site and work the same way?
Is there a drawback to doing it this way?
If so, where is the file that the CGIVAR refers to that I need to edit so that my meta information is populated correctly?

Thanks

Re: Meta Generator Confustion

I'd just remove it and add your own. It's just CCP's way to make it easy for folks who aren't into editing their layout. The layout is used on almost every page on the site, so if you add your own meta tags they will propagate throughout the whole site. There are some ste_nolay_* files that get used in a few circumstances that also use the CGIVAR. You could edit those too.

HTH,

Thanks much for the advice.  I will just replace the CGIVAR call with standard HTML.  Thanks for the heads up about the ste_nolay_* files as well!
