This plugin provides a simple <code>[meta]</code> shortcode that allows you to fetch meta information for the current <code>$post</code>. 
There are options to return a single value, multiple values joined by a user defined string, or a JSON string.
Examples:
<pre><code>[meta name="your_meta_field"]
</code></pre>
This will return the value of “your_meta_field”. If the value is an array, it will return a comma separated list, unless you specify an alternative join string.
<pre><code>[meta name="your_meta_field" single="false"]
</code></pre>
By default, [meta] will return a single value. If you have multiple meta fields with the same name, you can get them all by setting single=”false”.
<pre><code>[meta name="your_meta_field" single="false" json="true"]
</code></pre>
This will return the JSON encoded value of “your_meta_field”.
<pre><code>[meta name="your_meta_field" single="false" join="|"]
</code></pre>
This will return a pipe separated values of “your_meta_field”.
<pre><code>[meta name="your_meta_field" shortcode="false"]
</code></pre>
By default, the value will be passed to do_shortcode, unless you turn if off.
<pre><code>[meta name="your_meta_field" filters="true"]
</code></pre>
There are a couple filters available if you want to filter the value. They are called after do_shortcode and before any JSON/array handling. 
They are on be default, but can be turned of with filters=”false”. The filters are “meta_fetcher_value” and “meta_fetcher_{$name}”.

This plugin cleans meta descriptions of any shortcode that you input. If no Yoast meta description exists, this plugin will insert one without the specified shortcodes. This is NOT an official Yoast plugin/addon.

Clean Meta Descriptions
