    How do you set or change the title and meta descriptions for the front page? I’m using the SEO plugin from Yoast which works for all pages. But, I don’t see a way in the Customizr theme or in Yoast to set title and meta descriptions for the front page. When I view source on the front/home page here is what is generated.

    Here is a comparison of another page which has the correct title and meta descriptions.

    Resolved.

    The Front page has been set to latest posts so it does not generate a page where you normally enter SEO titles and meta descriptions with the Yoast plug in.

    Go to Yoast SEO plugin, Titles and Metas, and select the Home tab.

    You need to replace the default selections for Title template and Meta description template with the exact text you want.

    Glad you solved.
    Mind to mark this topic as resolved?
