Google generates messy description when custom forum description is not set

Hey friends I hope you're doing great! Thanks for the great piece of software, really enjoying it.

Small detail, could be nice to document how to disable letsencrypt service and co and forwarding uwsgi port to reverse proxy for users to do their own SSL termination :-) not hard for people who are into docker-compose but probably out of reach for most users, hehe.

Back to the topic at hand - here's how my forum looks on Google:

oops

Not ideal is it :-) I'm sure there's something to be done about it, but possibly it's just what one gets when missing a forum description in the settings?

Thanks again, keep up the great work!

Thanks for reporting. This looks like Google picking icons labels because there's no default forum meta description set. Maybe there's a way to tell google to skip those via some special HTML attribute, but otherwise I don't see how this can be solved. 🤔

Sorry, misago-docker works only because it forces you into its opinions. Making instruction to disable SSL for custom setup would be extra support burden on me :| But if you want to, I have nothing against misago-docker fork that strips some parts of setup, eg. Lets Encrypt.
