Notice: change in your permalink structure

    Hi there,

    On Dec 13th, I received a random notification from Yoast that there was a change in our permalink structure even though nothing was changed in the WordPress admin area under Settings > Permalinks.

    There only activity with Yoast was that we turned the XML sitemap toggle on (no one in the team knew why it was off in the first place).

    Another thing that I am guessing could provoke the notification is that we changed one of the custom post types link from example.com/name/slug to example.com/name-name/slug.

    However, the notification says that the SEO data needs to be reprocessed and the website is huge, so it will take a long time. But the custom post type, where the link was changed, has only three pages. So I am super confused why would it say so.

    I read all the possible forums regarding this but there is no clear solution to that. Please, help!

    For more info, I updated the plugin to the last version yesterday and the notification did not go away.

    Thanks.

    Due to a change in your permalink structure, some of your SEO data has to be reprocessed. We estimate this will take a long time due to the size of your website. Instead of waiting, you could wait about a week for Yoast SEO to process most of your content in the background. Run the indexing process on your server with WP CLI.

    From v15.1, the Yoast SEO plugin can now detect the home URL or permalink structure changes. And since it’s a significant change, Yoast SEO needs to run the SEO data optimization again. We suspect the change in permalink structure of your CPT has triggered the issue no matter how many posts are under it.

    If you have not run the SEO data optimization in the WordPress > SEO > Tools page on your site’s dashboard, can you please do do and inform us of the result?
