First off I would like to thank you for making such an awesome plugin and support forum.

I would like to know how can we grab the description data from the page, post and such and place it at the top of each page?

I had this working but now that I upgraded to 2.8.1 it doesn't work at all.

Here is the code I had:

<?php
global $wp_query;
$curauth = $wp_query->get_queried_object();

if (is_single()) {
echo get_post_meta($wp_query->post->ID,'description',true);
} elseif (is_category()) {
echo str_replace(array('<p>', '</p>'), '', category_description());
} elseif (is_tag()) {
echo "The Tag ";
$tagdata = single_tag_title();
echo " is brought to you by Kevin's Lair.";
} elseif (is_home()) {
bloginfo('description');
} elseif (is_author()) {
echo $curauth->description;
} elseif (is_page()) {
echo get_post_meta($wp_query->post->ID,'description',true);
} else {
bloginfo('description');
}
?>

Is there an easier way to just grab the aioseo description and place it there?

Thanks,

Kevin

Thank you for the reply.

Here is the code I have so far and it works 100% to what I need to accomplish.

<?php

global $wp_query;
$curauth = $wp_query->get_queried_object();
$post_id = $wp_query->post->ID;
$key = "_aioseop_description";
$single = "true";

if (is_single()) {
echo get_post_meta($post_id, $key, $single);
} elseif (is_category()) {
echo str_replace(array('<p>', '</p>'), '', category_description());
} elseif (is_tag()) {
echo "The Tag ";
$tagdata = single_tag_title();
echo " is brought to you by Kevin's Lair.";
} elseif (is_home()) {
bloginfo('description');
} elseif (is_author()) {
echo $curauth->description;
} elseif (is_page()) {
echo get_post_meta($post_id, $key, $single);
} else {
bloginfo('description');
}

I have this at the top of my pages and it works great.

Thanks,

Kevin

I would like understand what effect this has in search engines and where exactly would such a script be located…page.php?
