Can't save SEO title changes

  • Trying to change SEO title using Yoast on my home page. when I save changes by clicking “update”, changes are not saved. However, when I do this on another page of the site, Yoast saves my SEO title. Is there some setting that I need to change to have changes saved on home page?

  • I’m having a similar issue on a client site. I’ve read through the other related posts on the forum, and there don’t seem to be any good solutions beyond “delete everything and start over”. In my case, that’s not possible, as it’s a client site, so I’m hoping someone (maybe even Joost himself…) can lend an eye on this issue.

    WordPress version: 3.5
    WordPress SEO version: 1.3.4.3

    I did this:

    1. Changed SEO Title and Meta Description on Home (front page) or a couple other pages (I don’t see the pattern, but it works correctly on some pages and not others).
    2. Clicked Update.

    I expected the plugin to do this:

    1. Display the updated text in the SEO metabox after saving (both the preview and the input values)
    2. Display the updated text in the preview on the Pages list
    3. Generate the correct Title & Meta Desc on those pages

    Instead it did this:

    1. Displayed old/arbitrary text in the input fields in the SEO metabox
    2. It did, however, generate everything else correctly (both previews, and the actual <title> & <meta> tags
    3. The issue is that the client has to remember to update the SEO text every time they make an update to one of those pages, otherwise that incorrect leftover text gets saved as the new SEO title & meta desc

    Hopefully that’s useful. Thanks.
