    I can't get the SEO Meta Description field to become active.

    On a page it's greyed out and says "Modifications disabled (meta name description tag disabled)."

    Also in the source code for the front-end page there is no meta description line included.

    If I go to SSO > Advanced Settings > HTML Tags > SEO / Other tab, meta name description is turned on, but there is a note that says "Note that the link rel canonical, meta name description, and meta name robots tags are disabled automatically if another known SEO plugin is detected."

    I do not have any other SEO plugin installed - I did use AIOSEO Pro but its no longer installed.

    My active current plugins are:

    Figured it out, the UX for the settings is confusing – normally toggle switched are green if on and grey if off, with this plug green means changed from the default. So you an have both instances of toggle buttons being green in the on AND off positions.
