16.0.2 adds inline css that breaks theme

We are afraid to say that we’re not aware of any inline CSS generates by the Yoast SEO plugin that affects the front end part of the website. So, can you please elaborate more on how exactly can we reproduce the issue at your site on our end?

In addition, can you please confirm whether the issue persists whenever using the default 2021 theme?

We look forward to hearing from you.

I accidentally disabled the plugin after posting. I activated it again. It’s adding a second body tag in the code and “There has been a critical error on your website.”

Thanks for your confirmation. We looked at your site and were able to reproduce the issue. We see the error There has been a critical error on your website appearing at the footer part of your website.

The issue you’re currently experiencing typically occurs due to a conflict. So, we’d like you to please perform a conflict check. The fastest way to do this is to?deactivate all non-Yoast plugins and switch to a standard theme?like?Twenty Nineteen.?

Test this on your development or staging site, if you have one. If not, we recommend using the?Health Check & Troubleshooting?plugin. This plugin allows you to run a conflict check?without affecting normal visitors to your site.

As we can imagine that 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 do not feel comfortable doing this yourself or if this does not solve your issue, our Yoast SEO Premium plugin comes with one year of (technical) support.

We are going ahead and marking this issue as resolved due to inactivity. If you require any further assistance please create a new issue.
