    My website is www.mainlinecounselingpartners.com. I have installed the yoast seo program. Even though I type in my meta descriptions, google still uses first line of text. Please advise.

    Hello,

    I think theme meta description conflicting with plugins description.
    You can remove default meta description from "header.php" file.

    Check image for reference.

    Thank you for your response. I am not a programmer so can you give more information about how I can find the header php file?

    Hello,

    Go to
    Appearance > Editor
    and search(ctrl+f) header.php there and open it.


    Thanks & Regards

    Thank you so much, but I made the change above and it doesn't seem to be working

    Whatever description you add for home page will display as a meta description.

    Please check image attached. Which is showing description you have added in the
    Dashboard > SEO > Titles & Metas > Home > editing the front page itself
