I want to show the Meta Description in search results. I am using the standard search form on Silverstripe 2.4.
This code does NOT display the $MetaDescription and I think the problem is that the built-in search functionality does NOT return MetaDescription along with other SiteTree objects.
How can I get the $MetaDescription in these results?
Here is my template code:
<h1>Search Results</h1>
<div class="typography">
<% if Results %>
<ul id="SearchResults">
<% control Results %>
<li>
<% if MenuTitle %>
<h3><a class="searchResultHeader" href="$Link">$MenuTitle</a></h3>
<% else %>
<h3><a class="searchResultHeader" href="$Link">$Title</a></h3>
<% end_if %>
<% if MetaDescription %>
<p>$MetaDescription</p>
<% end_if %>
<a class="readMoreLink" href="$Link" title="{$Title}">Click Here</a>
</li>
<% end_control %>
</ul>
<% else %>
<p>Sorry, your search query did not return any results.</p>
<% end_if %>
<% if Results.MoreThanOnePage %>
<div id="PageNumbers">
<% if Results.NotLastPage %>
<a class="next" href="$Results.NextLink" title="View the next page">Next</a>
<% end_if %>
<% if Results.NotFirstPage %>
<a class="prev" href="$Results.PrevLink" title="View the previous page">Prev</a>
<% end_if %>
<span>
<% control Results.SummaryPagination(10) %>
<% if CurrentBool %>
$PageNum
<% else %>
<a href="$Link" title="View page number $PageNum">$PageNum</a>
<% end_if %>
<% end_control %>
</span>
</div>
<% end_if %>
</div>
Thanks!
