Not sure if this is the right place? Just want to get the correct meta tags for pages.

For instance. This is the latest one I found.

<meta name="robots" content="index,follow">

You don't need it. Robots will index and follow without you telling them to.

Yes, I agree. Anything to alter the bots behaviour should be done through the robots.txt.
