Hi @icemanau

Thanks for reaching out.

I understand that the H1 tag is missing on the homepage of your site.

Please reach out to your web developer to set the H1 tag on your homepage.

Hi @sahithk,

Thank you for letting me know the issue is resolved.

I’m marking this thread as resolved.

Have a great day!

Hi @sahithk,

Can you please activate the WPML SEO plugin only for the subsite where you have installed the Yoast SEO and WPML plugins instead of network activating the same?

Hi @sahithk,

Can you please activate the WPML SEO plugin and let us know whether it resolves the issue?

Hi @samopp,

Thanks for reaching out.

I’m sorry for the issue experienced with our plugin. Google recently announced changes to a few schema markup functions. It’s currently in our product roadmap to add ProfilePage schema properly into our product.

In the meantime, we recommend not marking the pages as Profile Page in the Yoast SEO meta box schema tab.

Hi @sahithk,

Thanks for using the Yoast SEO plugin.

I understand that duplicate product URLs are being shown on your sitemap.

Can you please confirm that you have installed the WPML SEO plugin on your site?

In addition, have you network-activated the Yoast SEO, WPML, and WPML SEO plugins?

Looking forward to your reply.

Hi @barterjonas,

Thanks for reaching out.

The Focus Keyphrase functionality is indeed available in both the free and premium versions of Yoast SEO. You can use this feature to optimize your content for a specific keyphrase and receive suggestions for improvement.

You can have a look at this article for more details: How to choose the right focus keyword.

Hi @junior,

Thanks for reaching out.

In terms of leaving the meta description box empty and letting Google decide, it’s certainly a valid approach, especially if your content is straightforward and the first paragraph doesn’t add much value as a meta description. Google’s algorithms are sophisticated and can often generate relevant snippets based on the content of your page.

However, even for simple and plain content, having a well-crafted meta description can still offer some advantages. While it might not directly impact search rankings, it can influence click-through rates and provide users with a concise preview of what to expect. A compelling meta description can potentially increase the likelihood of users clicking on your link in search results.

If you decide to use the first paragraph as the meta description, consider summarizing it in a way that highlights the uniqueness or key elements of the photo you’re sharing. This can provide a more tailored and enticing snippet for potential visitors.

Ultimately, the choice between leaving the meta description empty and crafting one manually depends on your preference and how much time you want to invest in optimizing this aspect. Feel free to experiment and monitor the results to see what works best for your audience.

Hi @canadianbleach,

This forum is reserved for supporting the free version of Yoast SEO. As this topic is about a premium plugin, this thread has been marked as resolved per the forum guidelines.

Please contact our support team for assistance if you have an active premium subscription. How can I get premium support?

If you do not have an active premium subscription, you can either purchase a subscription or downgrade to the free version.

Hi @davidterranova,

I understand that you want to update the og:image of your homepage.

If your homepage displays your latest posts, please go to Yoast SEO > Settings > Homepage (under Content types), add the Social image under the Social media appearance, and save the changes.

If you have a static page as your homepage, please edit the page, go to the?Social?tab of the Yoast SEO meta box, and add an image to the?Facebook image.

You can read more about this here: Optimizing the SEO title and meta description of your homepage.

Hi @sammishra,

Before installing the Yoast Test Helper plugin, please make sure that you’re running the latest version of the Yoast SEO plugin (v21.7), and we recommend creating regular backups of your site and database for your site’s health and safety. A backup is crucial before installing, updating, or removing plugins?and provides you with a safety net if something were to go wrong. Learn more about the benefits of regular backups.

Hi @clairvoyagency,

From the error log, I can see the trailing error is from a different plugin.

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

If you feel uncomfortable doing this yourself or if this does not solve your issue, our Yoast SEO Premium plugin comes with one year of (technical) support.
