Greg's SEO is generating meta description content based on the "head" class generated by Share and Follow. This is the result:
<meta name="description" content="Recommend on Facebook Share on Linkedin Tweet about it Tell a friend" />
which is obviously not desirable. Has anyone else tried these same two plugins? Any suggestions how to get around this?

Uh, no -- GHPSEO is generating the meta description in the following order of preference: 1) your specified meta description, 2) your specified excerpt, 3) the WordPress auto-generated excerpt, which WordPress creates by snipping off the first bit of your content. If you have not specified either 1 or 2, and some other plugin is messing directly with your post content via a filter (not the nicest way to insert things into page output...), then naturally you'll get that turning up in your head description.
All the best,
Greg
Thanks for the reply. I have dumped Share and Follow. Besides the stated issue here, it pollutes the <head> with an obscene amount of junk.
