{# Meta Title Priority (in order): 1. Homepage: Use podcast's metadata.title (object == podcast on homepage, and users can set podcast.meta_title) 2. Content pages (episodes, blog posts, custom pages): Use content item's metadata.title (users can set meta_title per episode/post) 3. Generic pages (contact, about, etc.): Use page_title from build_header_context() (set by podcast-level page settings) Why this complexity? We need to distinguish between: - Homepage where object IS the podcast (should use podcast metadata) - Content pages where object is NOT the podcast (should use content metadata) - Generic pages where object might be podcast or not set (should use page_title) #} {# Meta Description Priority (same as title): 1. Homepage: Use podcast's metadata.description 2. Content pages: Use content item's metadata.description 3. Generic pages: Use page_description from build_header_context() #}
