    Hello,

    I am having issues with Yoast SEO reading that there are words in my blog posts. I am using a Salient Theme and Elementor and Yoast has worked great for the past year doing posts but in the beginning of September 2024 it stopped registering there was any words when there very visibly are.

    WordPress says: “Word count: 1032”

    Yoast SEO says: “The text contains 0 words.”

    Yoast SEO is reading the title and description. What can we do?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hello @altamarketing2024

    Thanks for using the Yoast SEO plugin. Can you let me know how you’re adding the content for the posts where the content isn’t detected? You mentioned having Salient theme and Elementor but Salient integrates the WPBakery page builder.

    Yoast SEO analyzes the default WordPress content areas like the title, URL, the main content box (WordPress editor). If you are adding your content through other plugin or theme content boxes (as most page builders do), Yoast SEO may not be able to detect it by default. Currently, we are compatible with the Elementor page builder. The?Yoast SEO Elementor integration?is free to use for everyone; no premium or add-on is required for core functionality.

    Although our plugin does not detect your content and shows an incorrect analysis report, this does not affect how search engines crawl and analyze your site. Search engines process the front end of your site and will detect your content.

    Thanks for responding,

    We write the posts in the backend of the site directly through WP backend editor. It would analyze them up until Sep. 9 and then just stopped. It is only on our blog that we are having this issue. It recognizes content and wordcount on new pages built, just not posts.

    Hi @altamarketing2024

    Yoast SEO should detect the content that you added via default WordPress editor. Can you kindly check conflict on your site?

    Often, we see problems occur in combination with another plugin or theme. The fastest way to rule out any conflict is to deactivate all non-Yoast plugins and switch to a standard theme like Twenty Twenty-Two.

    Please test this on your development or staging site if you have one. If not, we recommend using the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin. This plugin has a troubleshooting mode, which does not affect normal visitors to your site.

    If you’re unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we’d like to point you to a step-by-step guide that will walk you through the process: How to check for plugin conflicts
