Meta Description

Hi all,

My meta description seems to have disappeared from my listing in google and looking at the source code of the page it's not there, so obvious why google has dropped it.

It's in my LR CE4 Pages 'Meta Description' section but is obviously getting over-wrote somewhere else in my setup; any clues where to start looking?

Thanks,
Terry

Re: Meta Description

Can you provide a link to your site? otherwise it's just a guessing game.

My first guess would be that you might be managing your Home page with Publisher. If so, you'd need to make sure all those meta fields are filled out in the template you're using.

Re: Meta Description

Hi Rod,

ha yeah sorry forgot the link.

www.TerryLiveseyPhotography.co.uk

Yes, I'm using publisher.

The fields are filled out in the CE Pages template as this is not pushed through publisher but exported and uploaded manually.  All the pages within the CE pages get their meta-description from the first lines of text on that page.  But the initial intro (which is the route of the site) has about using cursor keys etc as the meta description rather than what I filled in on the LR plugin page.

Cheers,
Terry

Re: Meta Description

Once I get past your opening full page flip gallery, the page source for your Commercial page shows the Description.

<meta name="description" content="commercial" />

It doesn't look like the description is included in the flip-gallery page in Pages.

the flip gallery page generated by Stage also lacks the Description field

Re: Meta Description

Ah, a bug maybe then.  Suppose I will just have to add it manually as that is the main page so really needs the correct meta description.

I'll get onto that now then smile

Thanks Rod for looking into that,
Terry
