Hi devnihil,

Thankyou for your response.

I did what you told and everything worked like a charm.

Now I am not seeing any of my old domain links in any meta or link tags.

Thank You again. 🙂

But I have one question,

Since I have changed from Subfolder domain to my root domain,
Are there any changes that I must make in Yoast?

Hi @qph9697,

Thank you for your reply. Happy to hear it’s sorted.

If you have migrated and the settings were already in place, you should not make any changes to Yoast settings. In case you are not sure, you can always go through the configuration wizard again to check if anything needs adjustments. You can do that by going to SEO → General → in the first box, there should be a link to open the wizard again.
