Shortcodes showing on Google Search Results

Hi @byzgl,

this should help: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/53775/unexpanded-shortcodes-in-search-engine-results

thank you so much.

but I noticed something that I used lots of shortcodes but only this plugin’s shortcodes are showing on google results.

Usually, Google takes page description from the <meta name='description'> tag. Could show me a few of your pages with valid and invalid descriptions? I’d like to inspect the meta tag.

Thank you.

thanks for your interest, I think I solved it by using:

preg_replace(‘/\[.*\]/’, ”, $post[‘post_content’])

Sorry that code is better:

$content = preg_replace(‘#\[[^\]]+\]#’, ”,$content);
