FAQ

How do the XML Sitemaps in the Yoast SEO plugin work?

Having an XML sitemap can be beneficial for SEO, as Google can retrieve essential pages of a website very fast, even if the internal linking of a site isn’t flawless.
The sitemap index and individual sitemaps are updated automatically as you add or remove content and will include the post types you want search engines to index. Post Types marked as noindex will not appear in the sitemap. Learn more about XML Sitemaps.

How do I implement Yoast SEO breadcrumbs?

The steps below are a temporary solution as manual edits made to theme files may be overwritten with future theme updates. Please contact the theme developer for a permanent solution. We’ve written an article about the importance of breadcrumbs for SEO.

To implement the breadcrumbs function in Yoast SEO, you will have to edit your theme. We recommend that prior to any editing of the theme files, a backup is taken. Your host provider can help you take a backup.
Copy the following code into your theme where you want the breadcrumbs to be. If you are not sure, you will need to experiment with placement:

<?php
if ( function_exists( 'yoast_breadcrumb' ) ) {
    yoast_breadcrumb( '<p id="breadcrumbs">','</p>' );
}
?>

Common places where you could place your breadcrumbs are inside your single.php and/or page.php file just above the page’s title. Another option that makes it really easy in some themes is by just pasting the code in header.php at the very end.

In most non-WooTheme themes, this code snippet should not be added to your functions.php file.
Alternatively, you can manually add the breadcrumb shortcode to individual posts or pages: [wpseo_breadcrumb]

If you need more details or a step by step guide, read our Implementation guide for Yoast SEO breadcrumbs.

How do I noindex URLS?

Yoast SEO provides multiple options for setting a URL or group of URLs to noindex. Read more about how to do this in this guide.

Google shows the wrong description, how do I fix this?

If you’ve crafted nice meta descriptions for your blog posts, nothing is more annoying than Google showing another description for your site completely in the search result snippet.

Possible causes could be:
1. wrong description in code
2. Google cache is outdated
3. Search term manipulation
4. Google ignored the meta description

You can read more here on how to solve the issue with the wrong description.

How often is Yoast SEO updated?

Yoast SEO is updated every two weeks. If you want to know why, please read this post on why we release every two weeks!

How do I get support?

As our free plugin is used by millions of people worldwide, we cannot offer you all one on one support. If you have trouble with the Yoast SEO for WordPress plugin, you can get help on the support forums here at wordpress.org or by checking out our help center at yoast.com/help/.

The plugins you buy at Yoast are called ‘premium plugins’ (even if Premium isn’t in its name) and include a complete year of free updates and premium support. This means you can contact our support team if you have any questions about that plugin.

Kindly exercise some patience...there does seem to be an error with this update for some. it seems to be breaking up some sites. Kindly install the previous version back on your site if you are experiencing any problems. 1. Go to the downloads section at wordpress.org 2. Go to the Yoast download page ( where the plugin is located) at the right-hand section of the page click ADVANCED VIEW. 3. Scroll down the page which opens, you will see an option to download previous Yoast plugin versions including 17.1... No need for rude language. The Yoast team works very hard trying to make thousands of us successful on the web.

Yoast's staff refused to provide any assistance with my issue with their plugin. It has a glitch, and they are refusing to solve the issue. They are wrongfully pointing the finger at me because they are lazy. I have two websites with the same honest and plugins. One website is experiencing the glitch from Yoast and the other website is not having the issue. It is clearly a problem with Yoast. I will never use their plugins again. I highly recommend everyone to avoid Yoast due to their unprofessionalism.

I had Yoast Premium (paid. Licensed) running on multiple sites and a conflict with another plug-in created a massive error (log) file that took down my entire hosting platform - multiple times - and was 100 percent attributed to the Yoast plug-in. ..we are talking 100 gig log files that built up in a week. Repeatedly. Contacted yoast multiple times and they dragged their feet for weeks pretending to diagnose when my hosting company gave me the log files and the error Messages - should have been easy to make progress in troubleshooting but days would go by. Eventually I had to remove all instances of yoast premium on all my sites and ask for a refund because they didn’t seem to want to be bothered helping me troubleshoot in a timely fashion. So warning - check those error logs. You might be surprised to see a storage vampire. Were it one site it could be chalked up to a bug but it happened on multiple sites running Yoast premium. Stick to free. I moved to Rank Math. I guess #1 SEO plug-in means it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work as long as they get paid. I did receive a pro rated refund for time not used which had zero impact because I had to delete everything. Don’t do it. Look elsewhere or stick to free.

google couldn't index my site, removed this shit and my problem solved

I recommend you avoid Yoast. It is broken, and they will ask you to fix it. It drops support. It blocks Google search. And according to Yoast, everything is either your fault or your responsibility to fix. Perhaps after the program matures, it will be worthwhile. I asked for a prorated refund, and, instead, they just canceled the subscription and said they offered no prorated refunds. I explained they my cancellation was based on receiving a prorated refund, so they should reinstate my subscription. However, they failed to act and ignored me—good luck dealing with them.
