    Hi, i am having issues with internal links not working/reading. On Gutenberg i use the link icon to link to internal posts from the site but for some reason SEOPress internal linking analysis is not reading any of the links i have on any of the posts. Is there specific settings need to turn on for that to work?

    Hey @rainbowgeek thanks for the reply, currently this is happening to all the posts. Below is one of the posts example i having issues with: https://vendettasportsmedia.com/wtfitg-lawrence-cager-fantasy-football-hero/

    I also took screenshot of the image of the internal links error below. For some reason it said found 10 “nofollow” link attributes but none of the posts has those “nofollow” attribute. Idk something is wrong with my settings.

    @rainbowgeek just a quick update, i did find out the issue with the “nofollow” links. Seems SEOPress reads what was in my “single post template” rather then reading what was in gutenberg; however, i am still having issues with “internal links” being read.

    The current template i use is from Bricks Builder, but even with wordpress default template it was still having a hard time being read.

    Hi,

    ok you’re using Bricks Builder.

    Unfortunately, we can’t provide the analysis of internal linking when using this builder as they don’t save their data following the WordPress way.

    So we can’t scan your post content.

    All other analysis work as expected.

    @rainbowgeek no worries! I did eventually find out the issue, and i know how it works now.
    SEOPress for some reason is just reading the “single post template” i made for my posts instead of just reading whats inside my gutenberg posts where i write my articles at. So whatever is outputted to that template it will read, including whatever is on that template like social media links and so fourth.

    AS for the internal links, it seems that it can only read what is connected to the post itself. It doesn’t seem to read what i output the link to from the post.

    For instance, if i create a post and created an internal link to another post, the internal link analysis doesn’t read that as internal linking for some reason. But if i create another post that links to that post i made it will be considered as internal linking. Its a bit weird but that is what I discovered.

    Thank you for this update.

    -> Yes this is the expected behavior.
