I could be wrong on this one its been awhile and i am not 100% on this, but i think that section of code was removed in order to provide for a better solution down the line.  But dont quote me on that one, it just seems i remember something about that.

I don't see any keywords on your site. See screenshot. How and where did you add those meta keywords? 

As to the description, your site description is Vlogger Tube Community, and it is clearly seen on this screenshot: http://www.oxwall.org/...%2012-31-41%20AM.png

But this is all I see in search results on landing page

This description should be added in the Languages section. Look for "community" keyword


you'll find the value {$site_name}community with this key: {text key='nav+page_default_description'} change it to yours.
