Google is not picking up my sites META info

My website is www.simchef.com. If you Google "simchef" the description of the website in search results is:

"Loading. http://simchef.com/modules/mod_image_sh ... 46.pnglink.

I've changed the META data so I don't know why this is happening. Please help.

Happy Holidays

Hi,
probably this is bug from old version of imageshow.
1) Use Google Webmaster Tool to delete all those links
2) to robots.txt add
Disallow: /modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/

3) Update module to new version - but make sure that's you still have old version on your PC/Mac - it's good idea to always have old and new version in case of.... upss

Hi,
I have the same problem. Google shows a really ugly snippet with the cache url instead of the meta data description. I know that Google doesn't always use the metadata description, but showing the url is terrible. I'm using the latest Image show, and have disabled the image show cache url in robots.txt and re-posted the url to Google through Webmaster tools, but the same horrible snippet is showing. Any ideas on this?
(By the way, if i google "site:grebbestad.net" instead of just the url, the snippet is using the meta description like it should. Don't know why!)

I suppose it's this code that Google interprets as site content:

Code: Select all

<figure>
         <div class="gkIsSlide" style="z-index: 1;" title="Grebbestad ny">http://www.grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/grebbestad-bildspelgk-is-211.jpg<a href="/">link</a></div>
         
               </figure>
                     <figure>
         <div class="gkIsSlide" style="z-index: 2;" title="Tjurpannan">http://www.grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/tjurpannan-pano-bildspel2gk-is-211.jpg<a href="/">link</a></div>
         
               </figure>
                                       <figure>
         <div class="gkIsSlide" style="z-index: 6;" title="Kajak">http://www.grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/vinterkajak-bildspelgk-is-211.jpg<a href="/">link</a></div>
         
               </figure>

Maybe it was temporary because now I see only clean good descriptions under links.
also generated code from module on your site looks okey, all images have titles and no errors

Code: Select all

<div class="gkIsWrapper-gk_storebox loaded " id="gkIs-gk-is-211" style="height: auto;">
   <div class="gkIsPreloader" style="opacity: 0; visibility: hidden;"></div>
   <div class="gkIsOverlay"></div>
   
                  <figure style="visibility: visible; opacity: 1;" class="active">
         <img title="Grebbestad ny" class="gkIsSlide" style="z-index: 1;" src="http://www.grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/grebbestad-bildspelgk-is-211.jpg">

Hi Pawel, I get different code showing depending on of i choose "inspect element" in FF, and another code if I use the plain "view source"... and google chooses to pick data from the bottom one unfortunately... Do you have any idea why this is happening?

Using "inspect element":

Code: Select all

<figure class="active" style="visibility: visible; opacity: 1;">

    <img class="gkIsSlide" title="Grebbestad" style="z-index: 3;" src="http://grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/grebbestad-pano-bildspel3gk-is-211.jpg"></img>

</figure>
<figure class="" style="opacity: 0;">

    <img class="gkIsSlide" title="Kajak" style="z-index: 6;" src="http://grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/vinterkajak-bildspelgk-is-211.jpg"></img>

</figure>

Using "view source":

Code: Select all

<figure>
         <div class="gkIsSlide" style="z-index: 3;" title="Grebbestad">http://grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/grebbestad-pano-bildspel3gk-is-211.jpg<a href="/">link</a></div>
         
               </figure>
                                 <figure>
         <div class="gkIsSlide" style="z-index: 6;" title="Kajak">http://grebbestad.net/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/vinterkajak-bildspelgk-is-211.jpg<a href="/">link</a></div>
         
               </figure>

Sorry but we can not control what google read.

Well then Pawel, maybe you should start to adapt to what Google reads. Ignoring Google is not a very professional attitude from a web developer. Truly disappointing.

Take a look at the screen shot from Google webmaster tools and think again. How you can defend that kind of result? Just simply fix it for the sake of your paying customers.
