Fixed consecutive sentences issue but plugin still says they are there

    Hi there, I’m using Yoast to optimize this page. When I started it said there were three consecutive sentences. I used the eye tool, located all three consecutive sentence issue areas, and fixed them. Once I fixed them the purple highlighting disappeared, but the circle stays red and message still says there are three.

    I moved on to the sentence length issue and each time I shortened a sentence the incidence percentage updated.

    Any idea why the consecutive sentence incidence won’t update?

    Hi Mushrit, I cleared the cookies and cache and restarted the browser. Logged back in to the post and it still shows the 3 consecutive sentence problem and when I click the eye there are no purple highlighted sentences (I know the purple highilghts are functioning because when I started there were three areas highlighted, but after I fixed each area and the highlights went away the problem notification didn’t clear.

    Hello @happynaturaldog, we are aware of instances where bullet points are detected as words and reported as consecutive sentences. Please ignore this warning since this is a valid use of icons on your page. It will not cause any problems with your article and search engines.

    What doesn’t make sense though is that when I started there were actually 3 incidences of consecutive sentences. Yoast identified them and highlighted them, and turned the highlighing off when I fixed them. So it doesn’t seem like it’s identifiying bullet points in this case, it seems like it was unable to “reset” once I fixed the issue.
