    Hi,
    lo
    ike the title already says:
    I gave the meta-description in the Yoast-Settings for:
    -homepage
    -pages

    I did not use variables – but i gave the description manually.
    But Yoast says “NO”:
    “<!– Nur für Administratoren: diese Seite stellt keine Meta Beschreibung dar, weil bisher keine vorhanden ist. Verfassen Sie entweder eine speziell für diese Seite oder definieren Sie eine Vorlage unter [SEO – Darstellung in Suchergebnissen] –>”

    Why and how can i fix that?

    kind regards
    axel

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @alauer

    Upon checking the page source of your homepage, we do see that there isn’t any meta description tag outputting.

    Is your homepage set as a static page? Could you provide us a screenshot of what you’ve entered in the meta description field in the Yoast SEO meta box when editing that page? You can use a service such as snipboard.io or imgur.com to upload a screenshot and share a link here with us.

    Hi @alauer

    We understand that you’re trying to remove the meta description and update the changes, but it results in the meta description value returning, even after saving.

    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.

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