      Meta-tag description showing image path
      The meta-tag description is showing the image path, which is undesirable as it offers no value and looks bad in SERPs.

      I was wondering why Google SERPs was showing an image path in the description for my Wiki pages. As images are used dominantly in my Wiki articles pages at the top prior to the ToC. Turns out that the software doesn't strip the image path when it adds it to the meta-tag for description. Personally, I don't think anyone would want this as it looks ugly in SERPs and adds no value to even encourage user's to click it. So could this be fixed for the next update?

      In vBulletin 4, vBulletin automatically creates the meta description from the text at the beginning of your article because it's retrieved as a thread. VaultWiki 3 doesn't apply any custom meta-information.

      We have already solved this for VaultWiki 4, as per: https://www.vaultwiki.org/issues/1991/
      Since the fix is the same, marked as Duplicate.
