+#### Scan Page Meta After Resolution
+
+🚦 **Impact Level**: Minimal
+
+##### What Changed
+
+We now scan page metadata (defined in `definePageMeta`) _after_ calling the `pages:extend` hook rather than before.
+
+##### Reasons for Change
+
+This was to allow scanning metadata for pages that users wanted to add in `pages:extend`. We still offer an opportunity to change or override page metadata in a new `pages:resolved` hook.
+
+##### Migration Steps
+
+If you want to override page metadata, do that in `pages:resolved` rather than in `pages:extend`.
+
+```diff
+  export default defineNuxtConfig({
+    hooks: {
+-     'pages:extend'(pages) {
++     'pages:resolved'(pages) {
+        const myPage = pages.find(page => page.path === '/')
+        myPage.meta ||= {}
+        myPage.meta.layout = 'overridden-layout'
+      }
+    }
+  })
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can revert to the previous behaviour with:
+
+```ts twoslash [nuxt.config.ts]
+export default defineNuxtConfig({
+  experimental: {
+    scanPageMeta: true
+  }
+})
+```
+
 #### Shared Prerender Data

 This only works with static or strings/arrays rather than variables or conditional assignment. See [original issue](https://github.com/nuxt/nuxt/issues/24770) for more information and context.
 
+It is also possible to scan page metadata only after all routes have been registered in `pages:extend`. Then another hook, `pages:resolved` will be called. To enable this behavior, set `scanPageMeta: 'after-resolve'`.

 You can disable this feature if it causes issues in your project.
