The nosnippet setting (and max-snippet:0) tells Google not to show any text from the page. Google also uses it to keep the page out of AI Overviews and AI Mode, so your homepage can’t be quoted in those answers.
Fix it
Find the robots meta tag in your SEO plugin, theme or site settings and remove nosnippet or max-snippet:0. If you only want to hide one part of a page, such as a price or a disclaimer, ask your developer to add data-nosnippet to that section instead.
For your developer
Remove nosnippet and max-snippet:0 from the robots meta tag and X-Robots-Tag header. To exclude specific text only, use the data-nosnippet attribute on that element.
General guidance only. Take a backup before making changes, and test on a staging copy where you can. Nobody can guarantee what AI tools recommend.
