    I have set the post description to be automatically generated with this plugin using basic and advanced variables. I would like to display the automatically generated description in the actual post in frontend. I tried the method given here which has a code like below :

    <?php
 echo get_post_meta($post->ID, '_yoast_wpseo_metadesc', true);
 ?>

    But I am not getting anything printed in my frontend. What am I missing ?

    I should have researched a bit more. Here it is if someone else would like to do the same. All credits to this post on wpse.

    <?php $object = new WPSEO_Frontend();
       echo $object->metadesc( false ); ?>
