 * Hi guys,
 * Have any of you ever encountered a problem where your post meta descriptions 
   aren’t showing in Google?
 * For some reason, only on some articles that have previously shown a set meta 
   description, Google is now displaying my website footer as the description (as
   seen in this link – [https://www.google.com/search?q=an+adventurous+world+kumano+kodo&oq=an+adventurous+world+kumano+kodo&aqs=chrome](https://www.google.com/search?q=an+adventurous+world+kumano+kodo&oq=an+adventurous+world+kumano+kodo&aqs=chrome)..
   69i57j69i64.4665j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8).
 * I know Google pulls what it wants, but these articles previously did show the
   correct description with the correct meta name=”description” content=”XXX” all
   set.
 * I can’t work out if this is something I’ve done or whether Google is being buggy
   at the moment. Any advice would be appreciated!
 * Cheers,
 * Macca
