Meta descriptions

There is a problem with meta description tags when integrated with vb3 that I've never been able to find anything on fixing.

There are two description tags, one at the top, generated by the vb header, which is totally meaningless to the PP pages, and one further down, generated by PP, which is actually relevant. Unfortunately, the search engines seem to always use the first one. So, every search result page shows a completely irrelevant description of the photo/category.

So... is it possible to strip the vb3 generated meta tags from the PP pages? I've done quite a few improvements to my site SEO wise, but this is a major one and I can't figure it out.

I am not really sure of a way to do that except maybe make a new vb headinclude template called headinclude2 and use all the relevent content for vb but change the meta tags in that new template and then in our header-inc.php file maybe change this line to add the one in bold.

Code:

That worked perfect as far as the meta issue goes, thanks.

However... it seems to have broken the template and/or CSS. I'm guessing it's path related, but I can't see where.

Take a look

Did you make an exaxt replica in your headinclude2 template of the original template so the style info could be included?

Yes, I did. However, I was a moron and created the new template file in the wrong theme. It works fine now, thank you
