1. Assigning custom meta-data (title, keywords, description and H1) to catalog (article groups)
In CMS / SEO press "Generate excel file" in which you can assign dedicated values for groups meta-data (titles, keywords, descriptions) in supported languages.
Variables to be used in imported Excel file are described in CMS/SEO. Your dedicated excel file with groups can also be generated there.
For modifying meta-data of root group of the catalog, use first row of Excel called Root as shown on picture below.
Example of custom meta-data usage:
After clicking "Generate excel file" wait paitently - data are being prepared for you and this process takes some time.
Generated file always consists previously configured rules - it is good to always use fresh, generated file, modify it and then upload it (avoid to upload old copies of excel file, as groups may change meanwhile)
