Of course there is a way, and maybe more than one, but it takes time and
effort. Some time ago I tried to figure out how to couple the new version
of PLUMED with QE. Eventually I figured out that I was unable to figure it
out. Given my limited interest in metadynamics, I gave up.

no idea. There is some documentation of what you can do with (old versions
of) PLUMED + QE  in Doc/plumed_quick_ref.tex.

Otherwise, is there a preferred code to interface with QE to run meta

I am not aware of any metadynamics code coupled to QE. In principle it
should not be difficult.
