Hi,
I’ve noticed that our search results are showing HTML code, not what is currently on the page.
I’ve reset the settings in Titles and Meta and checked the page source again but this is what it’s showing (and in OG and Twitter descriptions).
<meta name=”description” content=”[av_section min_height='100' min_height_px='500px' padding='default' shadow='no-border-styling' bottom_border='no-border-styling' bottom_border_diagonal_color='#333333' bottom_border_diagonal_direction='' bottom_border_style='' custom_margin='0px' custom_margin_sync='true' scroll_down='aviaTBscroll_down' custom_arrow_bg='#ffffff' id='top' color='alternate_color' background='bg_color' custom_bg='' background_gradient_color1='' background_gradient_color2='' background_gradient_direction='vertical' src='https://dev2.corporatechairs.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/homepage2.jpg' attachment='24' attachment_size='full' attach='parallax' position='center center' repeat='stretch' video='' video_ratio='16:9' overlay_opacity='0.5' overlay_color='' overlay_pattern='' overlay_custom_pattern='' av_element_hidden_in_editor='0' av_uid='av-jx9un1n1']” />

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
The %excerpt% variable will automatically generate the description from the first lines of content on your page including page builder shortcodes.
I can suggest that you enter some manual meta descriptions for each of the affected posts via the Rank Math metabox as shown below:
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
Hello,
Thanks for getting back to us.
We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

We really look forward to helping you.
