    The topic title pretty much sums up the problem I have. I am trying to optimize SEO data using the Yoast SEO plugin. When I click the “Start SEO DATA optimization” button I get: Error message: Error parsing the response to JSON. I looked this issue up and tried the following reccommendations but none of them fixed the issue. I verified that the correct permalink structure is selected, deleted the .htaccess and forced WordPress to create a new one. I also installed the Yoast Test Helper plugin and clicked on the ‘Reset indexables tables & migrations’, ‘Reset Prominent words calculation’, and ‘Reset Internal link counter’ buttons. Like I said none of these fixed my issue and I am still getting the same error message. I will post the entire error below:
