Google search, meta description not recognized

Hello,

when i type my url into google, the result is this:
.com.hr/modules/mod_image_show_gk4/cache/stories.slideshow.stolice_slide1gk-is-433.jpglink ...

Why? How can I change that?

I have put up the meta description, over a month ago, why isn't it reading this?

I have checked with these two tools:
http://www.hypergurl.com/form.html
http://www.widexl.com/seo/metatag-analyzer.html

and on one it can see my description, and on the other one it says that no meta description or keywords are entered?

Any kind of help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hi

I do not see problem with keywords or description. By looking into the code of Your site I see them fine and in a proper place. An image is a different issue, becuase normally google pickes up the first image from content which is a slider in Your case. Try maybe add an image You would like to show manually in a custom module published over the slider and than hide this module with css. For example by using module class suffix like: " hide-me" and code:

Code: Select all

.hide-me {
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
}


Hi, first of all, thank You for your response, again.

I have to admin that i don't quite understand what I have to do..

I understand the problem, I thought that it would read my description instead of the first thing on the site. So, You mean that I should make a module in header position, and then paste this code you sent me into override.css? And then type "hide-me" in "Module suffix" field in the Slideshow module?

Did I get any of that right? As you could notice, I'm a bit of a noob

As far as I understand, it doesn't read the menu either, so would it help if I published a custom module under the slideshow, a textual one, with maybe one or two sentences (without pictures), and then put the code you sent in to hide the Slideshow, could that be an option, so it could somehow skip the slideshow and read the module below it?

I am very grateful for your help.

Hi

Not quite right

1. Create a new module with image.
2. Publish this module in header position over slideshow.
3. Add suffix " hide-me" to this module (space in front is very important).
4. Add the code I've mentioned to override.css

This way google will take most of the informations from this module (image and link) since slideshow has it's unique way of presenting images and You saw it's not looking nice in google results.

haha, I wasn't even close Thanks for clearing that up for me.

I think I got it, I'm going to try it now.

Just one more thing, when You say OVER the slideshow, that means that it should be in the header position, but I have to set the ordering, custom module first? right? or not......

Thank You.

Hi

Yes custom module goes first. This way an image will be see as first and google will no longer pick a slider as a leading picture.

Hi,

at the end I didn't have to do this, I just added a little more text to my site meta description, and it started showing fine...

So if anyone else encounters this problem-you could try this first.

Thank You Teitbite for You help and effort.

Hi

No problem. Glad I could help.

Hi

Answering You PM about colors in top menu module I see it's a little odd. First link looks like this:

Code: Select all

<strong><a></a></strong>


and the other:

Code: Select all

<a><strong></strong></a>


Please try change the second one to have an order as used in the first one.

You teitbite - are awesome! Missed that, works great now, thank you very much.

Hi

No problem glad I could help If You will have any new issue, please create new thread, this one is getting long
