Issue With Yoast 14.0.4

@flycheapestflights1 Please open a new request. That way it’s easier to track issues and provide assistance. Thanks!

@diydoctor I’m sorry to hear that the new update is causing you trouble. I was unable to reproduce the issue with Yoast SEO 14.0.4 and Permalinks Customizer 2.7.0

If you are using a different permalink customizer plugin, please let me know which one you have installed.

This was in a brand new test install with fresh installs of both plugins. I changed the posts permalinks to %postname%.htm, edited the generic ‘Hello World’ post and updated the permalink to the new structure.

Just to be sure, we would like to rule out any plugin or theme conflicts that may occur. 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.

Hi

Many thanks for the update and apologies for the delay in response. Also, should have stated in op that I have done all the standard necessary plugin conflict checking on our dev site, using stock wp theme, disabling all unnecessary plugins etc and the problem still persisted

UPDATE: I have updated to the most recent Yoast SEO release 14.1 and the issue does mostly seem to be resolved, except for seemingly mid-tier url’s in the json-ld breadcrumb markup:

{"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/#website","url":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/","name":"DIY Doctor","description":"The Home Improvement Hub","potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/?s={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-GB"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/projects/mortarmixes.htm#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-GB","url":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/images/mortarmixes.jpg","width":1000,"height":563,"caption":"How to Mix Mortar and a Table of Mixes for Different Types of Mortar"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/projects/mortarmixes.htm#webpage","url":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/projects/mortarmixes.htm","name":"How to Mix Mortar Including Table of Mortar Mixes for Different Types of Mortar","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/projects/mortarmixes.htm#primaryimage"},"description":"How to mix mortar for a variety of different jobs including house walls, chimneys, pointing, paving, render and floor screed.

As you can see in the above example #website and #webpage markup is displaying as it should do e.g. with no trailing forward slash after the final .htm as is also the case for the position:3 breadcrumb url e.g. https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/projects/mortarmixes.htm but the position:2 breadcrumb url is still displaying with a final closing forward slash e.g.: https://dev1.diydoctor.org.uk/projects.htm/

Whatever the fix was for the other remaining issues now seems to have worked but if you could also take a look at why the position:2 breadcrumb is still experiencing issues that would be great

Kind Regards

Thanks for following up with us and pointing this out. Yoast SEO v14.1 comes with the trailing slash fix. However, it looks like there are still few places left that we might need to take a look. Would you mind to submit a proper bug report for this with all the information including the relevant code you have so that we can our development team can look into this further for you?
