Both sites were running the same version of 14.x. I had never run ‘speed up your site’. The only place I saw incorrect URLs was in the canonical, an image path reference (for featured image I think) and the schema stuff that Yoast adds.

I don’t know anything about the internals of the sync from staging to prod. It’s on GoDaddy managed WordPress and uses their sync tool. It did not affect all posts on the site, only six out of seven of the most recent ones (possibly all edited since v14 was added but not sure about that).

I tried updating posts which showed the issue and re-syncing but the problem did not resolve.

As soon as I rolled back to 13.5 (on staging) and synced from staging to prod, all of the incorrect URLs corrected with no manual intervention.

For any folks with similar issues… I installed WP Rollback and rolled Yoast back to version 13.5 as many have suggested. That corrected all of my posts that had munged up canonical URL references. YMMV.

So what’s the remedy here? Go to the prod site and edit these properties directly to fix what Yoast is doing?

Seems there’s a bug in the BAM theme so the link color changes don’t display. You can do the following to work around:

To change the link color add the following to your “Additional CSS” under Customize. Use whatever color code you want to substitute in for these numbers.

.page-content a,
.entry-content a {
color: #123456;
}

To change the hover color add the following to your CSS.

.page-content a:hover,
.entry-content a:hover {
color: #654321;
}

I have exactly the same issue. Have changed the color values for article link and hover but they have no effect. Either I’m missing something basic or there’s a bug here. Would appreciate some help too! Thanks.
