    Hi Support,

    I have Yoast SEO installed and network activated on a WP multisite, and in the Pages view, when I enable the SEO Title and Meta Description options in Screen Options, all the subsequent pages display the same SEO Title and Meta Description output as the first page. Strangely, the Keyphrase, SEO score and readability scores are correct for each page.

    Your assistance in resolving this issue would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    Is that the extent of your troubleshooting? It’s clear that this isn’t a support forum and your only intention is to try to get me to pay for a software that I’m not even sure works for my use case. I’m just going to go ahead and uninstall and rather find an SEO software that does work properly with WP multisite.

    Hi,

    We understand that on your multisite, the SEO title and meta description that is appearing in the posts/pages overview section is showing as the same.

    Would it be possible for you to perform a conflict check and see if this issue still occurs with just a default WP theme and only the Yoast SEO plugin? So we can rule out that there’s another theme or plugin that is causing a conflict.

    Otherwise, could you also try resetting the indexables:

    1. Install & activate the?Yoast Test Helper plugin
    2. Go to Tools > Yoast Test
    3. Locate the Yoast SEO section and click on the ‘Reset indexables tables & migrations’, ‘Reset Prominent words calculation’, and ‘Reset Internal link counter’ buttons. After each click, the page will reload to confirm that each reset was successful. Note: Resetting the optimization doesn’t undo any of the hard work you’ve put into the plugin as the SEO data is also stored in WordPress’ default tables. It’ll just reset the custom Yoast tables that contain the combined data pulled from those default tables.
    4. Go to SEO > Tools, and under SEO data, click the “Start SEO data optimization” button to allow Yoast to rescan your?content.

    Could you check if this then resolves the issue with the SEO title and meta description preview in the overview section?
