    I have put a meta description in the following article via Yoast, but Ahrefs says it’s missing the meta description. Am I doing something wrong?

    Hi @conniemaldonado

    Upon checking the source code of the provided tag page of your website, we were unable to locate any meta description tag in the page source.

    Could you provide us with a screenshot of where you’ve entered the meta description?

    If you are editing this specific tag page, you can then go to the scroll down to the Yoast SEO meta box, and locate the ‘meta description’ field in the Google Preview section – https://snipboard.io/STQGZ4.jpg

    You can learn more about it here – https://yoast.com/meta-descriptions/

    Hey @conniemaldonado

    Thanks for providing that screenshot! Based on that, it looks like you have indeed set a specific meta description for the post itself and we do see it being output in the page source of /dental-fluorosis/

    However, based on the URL you mentioned earlier, it’s actually the tag page (/tag/dental-fluorosis/) that doesn’t have a meta description tag. These are 2 separate pages (1 is the post, 1 is the tag page). So if you could go and edit that specific tag page, try to see if you can input a meta description, save the changes, and then see if it outputs accordingly.
