   I am using SEO ultimate 6.9.7 ..the meta description is not working..on the meta description editor page > Blog Homepage I wrote the meta and checked the box "Use this blog’s tagline as the default homepage description" ....but when I do google search (ithinknew) its not showing up under my site title..so please help me with the following:-

   1) meta description not working and not sure if the meta keywords are working, i mean compatible with my theme blogolife (latest version)

   2) if you google search ithinknew you will find my site at the top but its just one line there no green colored url under that like other search results and offcourse no meta description. and i dont know from where to change my site title (i know there is an option in the admin panel, settings > general > site title but i set this as iThinkNew and in search result its showing up as ithinknew.com.....

   I checked out your site and I'm seeing this meta description in your site's code:

   We cover all tech news.

   Is this the meta description you entered for your homepage in the Meta Description Editor? If not, your theme may be missing the <?php wp_head(); ?> call. Check out this article for more info: Is Your WordPress Theme Plugin-Friendly?

   I did a search for your site and it looks like Google is choosing not to use that meta description for your site's search result listing, probably because the meta description is only 5 words long.

   thank you very much for your time...
   yes that was the meta description...however i had a long description before except for the box unchecked "Use this blog’s tagline as the default homepage description"
   I have written a long description this time and the box is still checked....

   i do have the <?php wp_head(); ?> and <?php wp_footer(); ?> in the header.php and footer.php respectively. However, didnt find the <?php wp_meta(); ?> and <?php do_action('comment_form', $post->ID); ?> in sidebar.php and comments.php respectively. can put them manually, if yes, please mention where.

   if meta description works with my site, does this mean all the other features of seo ultimate will work with my site?

   Thank you again...
