   I have added the following code to my functions.php

   function gen_meta_desc() {
   global $post;
   
   if (!is_single()) {
       return;
   }
   
   //print_r($post);
   $meta = strip_tags($post->post_content);
   $meta = str_replace(array("\n", "\r", "\t"), ' ', $meta);
   $meta = substr($meta, 0, 125);
   
   echo "<meta name='description' content='$meta' />";
   }
   
   add_action('wp_head', 'gen_meta_desc');

   But how do I get the description to output in the header?

   I have tried adding <meta name='description' content='$meta' /> in the header but it doesn't work.

   What do I do?
