    Why am I CONTINUALLY getting these warnings in my Yoast dashboard when there have been no content type changes? I’m getting in on just about every site Yoast is installed!

    Per your response on Twitter/X… Have you completed the SEO data optimization process under Yoast SEO > Tools?

    Yes! I have done that, on all my sites and continue to get the error message on a regular basis.

    @devnihil Thank you for this information. Should I wait until I notice the next notification pop-up to follow those steps, or should I preemptively go into all my sites and perform those actions to try and keep the notification from happening the next time in the future?
