Description meta tag field in results

Hi.

I am trying to get phpdig up and running, but am having a little problem with returning the description field in the results as i would like it to.

config file setup is as follows
PHP Code:
define('DISPLAY_SNIPPETS',false);
define('DISPLAY_SUMMARY',true); 
But then on the search results page where i have the
PHP Code:
<phpdig:text/> 
code I get some unexpected results.

I was assuming that I would see the actual meta tag description field from the pages I had indexed yet I appear to be getting a reordered and UPPERCASE/lowercase combination of the meta tag keywords field from the page.

Eg: meta tags are
PHP Code:
<META name="description" content="This is description field">
<
meta name="keywords" content="about, friends, family"
and when i do a search my phpdig:text returns
"FRIENDS FAMILY About"
where i would like it to return
"This is description field"

Many thanks for your help.

Hi. Did you try define('APPEND_TITLE_META',true); in the config file?

Hi Charter,

I have made that changed and it worked perfectly. I looked through and through the config file but didn't notice that for some reason.

Thanks heaps and it's a really fantastic tool, great work.

After making the change in the config file do you have to reindex the site for the meta descriptions to display on the search results?
