Link Counter Shuts Off after Hitting “Count Links” Button
-
Howdy Yoast,
thank you for the new Link Counter feature. I guess this is really useful. But it stopped working after hitting the Count Links Button on the
wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpseo_dashboard
.Steps
1
Logged in today to test the new feature.
2
Checked the Post Page and found the “Link Counter” column. No links counted.
3
Edit of one post, save and voilá 16 links counted for this post.
4
Great! But no way to do this manually. So I switched towp-admin/admin.php?page=wpseo_dashboard
5
Hit the Count Links button.
6
Watched the progress bar full of anticipation for the new feature.
7
Disappointed I hat to notice the result: The Text link counter feature (introduced in Yoast SEO 5.0) is currently disabled. For this feature to work Yoast SEO needs to create a table in your database. We were unable to create this table automatically.
8
Ups – but it worked already on one post!
9
Check for the tables, cloumns and indices: all set.
10
No js errors in the console.What to do?
