I have othermeta tag in my main bookmap under bookmeta like this
<othermeta content="WM178819" name="Search.WM-Product"/>

I need this to be rendered in all html pages as meta tags.   This works for the xml files references by the main bookmap and is added to the submap ditamap files in the temp directory but it does not get placed in the xml files references by the submaps so all of the html files generated from the submaps are missing these meta tags.


The move meta process  (https://www.dita-ot.org/dev/reference/preprocess-metadata.html)  is not moving the othermeta from the submaps to the topics, only from the master map to the topics.
I am struggling to figure out how to make it do this.

Can anyone help me?

I found that a bug has been open on github for this issue.  There is a work around listed that I am going to try

That worked,  in org.dita-community.preprocess-extension   preprocess-extension.xml I changed the dependency order as shown.
