    Hi @arslanh

    Thanks for using Yoast SEO plugin. I understand that you are noticing an error when trying to Save the Pinterest image.

    First, please note that even though Yoast SEO provides an option to verify the Pinterest meta tag and to provide rich pins on your website, the parameter which is passed from your website when clicking on Pinterest is not handled by Yoast SEO.

    When I checked the Pinterest parameters outputted on your website for images, I noticed that a media parameter is outputted with some svg details. So we recommend you to contact the Pinterest social sharing plugin which you are using on your website to check why this parameter is passed to Pinterest when sharing the images.

    media=data%3Aimage%2Fsvg%2Bxml%2C%253Csvg%2520xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%2520viewBox%3D%270%25200%2520700%2520466%27%253E%253C%2Fsvg%253E
