No "Server description" and no "Custom extended information"

[Eismer]

Hello,

my (freshly installed) instance shows neither the server discription nor the custom extendet information. Only the server rules and the moderated servers are shown at ".../about/more".

Does anyone know, what I'm making wrong?

@eismer You can edit those under Administration -> Settings.

@girish Hello!

Thank you for your help!

I have been admin all the time and filled out the settings you mentioned. That's why I could wrote some rules etc. However, the server description doesn't show up anywhere. But some hours ago, I figured out how to use the custom extended information. I simply used some HTML-Tags (h2-Tag) and now it's working like I think it should be.

So, the only problem is still the server description. It doesn't show up at the frontpage. Do you also know, where this information should be found?

@eismer Ah yes, I didn't find it prominently anywhere either, but I did found it in the html inside meta tags.

@eismer So, I see that some description is here - https://mastodon.social/about but that is not in https://mastodon.social/about/more . Maybe this is how the pages are designed.

edit: but the description is in the meta tags view-source:https://mastodon.social/about/more

@girish Confirmed. I also found my description in the meta-tags. Okay, that's how it (the page design) works.

Problem solved.

Once again: Thank you very much!
