    When I check the index of my blog, I notice that all the search results descriptions display the same thing.

    I am using the All In One SEO plugin so I don't know if I need to change something in those settings. A screenshot is below of what the search results return for my site.

    Help please! I have over 100 unique articles and they are not bringing in traffic, so this maybe one (of the many) issues that I need to fix.

    Sorry for the small screenshot

    Did you put individual desc for every post you've created? And make sure "Autogenerate Descriptions:" box in All in One SEO Plugin Options are checked.

    I have "Autogenerate Descriptions" checked.

    I do not put a description on every post because I thought the plugin and/or wordpress would use the first few lines of the paragraph to create the description/summary.

    I think I figured out the problem.

    The person who created the template may have changed the default code for the meta description.

    What should the php/html code be in the blog template to automatically pull a short description from the post?
