Well I asked "I want the title of page in my meta description and keywords... so all pages will have their own description in meta"

and the thing this code did is that...

Thanks everyone for giving your time to my topic and helping me :) Marking this solved... Thanks Arantor :) I always like you :D

But the page's title is not its description. It's just its title, which achieves nothing for SEO - it just quietens down the complainers who think it'll make a difference...

But I never said that I want this for SEO... I just wanted this because I don't want same meta desc in all those thousands of pages

Why else would you want it? It's not visible to users unless they go through the source code (which, to be honest, 99.999% of users don't)

The only groups that even vaguely use it are the search engines, and in all honesty, they won't use it because it's too short and contains absolutely nothing of value. Imagine searching on Google for your forum and seeing the extract from your site simply as the page title. That's what you've told it to use.

Fortunately, Google is smart enough to ignore what you've done and figure its own description out.
