Strange 'Read More' Text in header

I’m having the same issue, it’s Read MoreRead MoreReadMore across the top left.

Have you checked after disabling all the plugins

Hello,

This Must be due to any of active plugin.
Try de-activating the plugin.

Hey guys, thanks for your reply.

I found it to be a compatibility issue with WordPress SEO by Yoast: https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/#utm_source=wpadmin&utm_medium=plugin&utm_campaign=wpseoplugin

what can be done about this?

I have this same issue

I disabled all plug ins and re-activated them, seemed to fix the issue for me.

I’ve found it is the yoast seo plugin

Yes its the seo plugin..

Is there a way to get rid of this? I’ve never had this issue in the past with this plugin on another theme.

Thank you for your help!

I also had this problem. After inspecting my source and doing a little hunting, I think I may have discovered the cause, at least mine.

I am using my own theme, but this was my first time introducing the yoast plugin. I suspect many themes that generate the “read more” text may have this issue.

I have a function within my functions.php file generating og properties. The og:description property was set as content="'. the_excerpt(); .'".. that was generating the “read more” copy in the header.

For some reason when activating the seo plugin, this causes this line to fail. However, the yoast plugin also generates og properties and will cause these to be doubled in your head, or most likely one in the head and one outside of the head.

If you’re using the yoast plugin, and your theme is generating it’s own og properites I’d try disabling any og function all together, most likely named insert_fb_in_head() {…

THANK YOU!!
