Thanks for taking the time out to reply.

Im using the all in one seo plug in so that might be effecting it. The plugin has an option where you can add your own meta description when creating a post so ive created a few new posts today and put the description in there rather than the excerpt box. The site is ladiesgolftrousers.co.uk and when i do a site:ladiesgolftrousers.co.uk test in google the single posts are currently just showing the default description so im eager to change this.

To alchymyth, how did you test this code? I was under the impression that you have to wait for google to crawl the site before seeing a meta description update in the serps. If you could share how you tested it i would be very grateful.

Thankyou both for your time.

Thanks for the reply, i’ll give it a go.

Never mind, i’ve found the answer on a previous thread. Thanks to t31os for his brilliant knowledge. It worked perfectly. if anyone is interested, here’s the link to the thread.

Brilliant, thanks for that, works a treat!

Thanks for your help. I managed to get it working! For anyone that might have a similar problem i used the following code…

<?php
$current = get_query_var(‘cat’);
$cat = get_category($current);
$parent = $cat->category_parent;
if(function_exists(‘get_terms_meta’)) {
$screen = get_terms_meta($parent, ‘logo’);
$screen = $screen[0];
} ?>

Thanks for that, i’ve changed my settings and it seems to have worked. Cheers

Just trying to follow some tips i found for increasing wordpress speed over at…

Nevermind, i’ve done it.

In case anyone is interested, i changed the ‘store uploads in this folder’ to: img/images and the ‘full url path’ to: https://img.mysite.com/images

Cheers for the help, i’ll look straight into it.

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.

Do you therefore think that my priority is to switch to a different host? I can’t afford a dedicated server so it would have to be shared hosting again. Are there big differences in performance from company to company?

Also how do i change the Apache settings so that my ‘keep-alive’ time is changed and how do you load images in a parallel fashion?

Thanks for your time,
Patrick

Thanks very much, worked perfectly!!!

Thanks for the reply.

I’ll give the development version a try and see what happens. While trying to find a solution this morning i stumbled upon this web page that has some code that will suffice in the meantime if anyone is having similar problems.

Hopefully the 3.1 update will add some much needed improvements to the taxonomy system.

I finally manages to crack this! For anyone wondering what to do, you need to edit the widget.php file from the plugin folder and delete the $title variable when it reads output $title.

Perfect!! Thanks very much.

Managed to adapt the code and got it working! Excellent! Thanks for your help.
