Yoast SEO Giving False Conscutive Sentences Alert

    I went to create a post but noticed that the SEO analysis is telling me that I my text contains 4 instances where 3 or more consecutive sentences start with the same word. The highlight butting doesn’t work. So to test if this is correct, I have taken the content down to ONE Sentence, and I am still getting this error. I have delete the post, renamed the post, cleared cache on both the site and the browser. I have tried other browsers all with the same result. I have deleted Yoast SEO, cleared cache, installed the latest plugin and I am still getting this nonsense. All my other post are still showing green lights. This is only happening on new post. I can’t supply a link as I am not posting a messed up post on my website. IS there an update that can fix this. I did however go to anther one of my websites and copied the text to it, and it is all green lights, so this issue is only with this one site. Any ideas?

    Hello Rdpshop,

    I am sorry to learn about the supposed false alert of consecutive sentences. Unfortunately, it is hard to troubleshoot if you cannot share the URL of the affected post. The consecutive sentences check is aimed at helping you identify consecutive sentences in a paragraph. However, if you are using a page builder, other HTML elements may be detected thereby giving wrong feedback. If you are sure there are no consecutive sentences, you can safely ignore this warning.

    I marked this thread as resolved due to a lack of activity by the original poster. The original poster is always welcome to re-open this topic.

    As far as I know, this issue is with the Theme and Plugin creator. I used Thrive Themes and I had also contacted them. They say it is their issue and a fix will come out next update. I had been slow to respond here due to waiting on them. This issue isn’t with all Thrive sites as I have 5 others that are not having any problems at all. Just my luck I guess.

    I have the same issue with one of my blog posts. No matter how many times I reviewed my article and made sure there were no consecutive sentences that start with the same word, I still get the red flag.

    Are you using images with captions in your blog post? I just tried adjusting the first word in my image caption and this oddly resolved the “consecutive sentences” issues. Odd why this is the case considering it has nothing to do with consecutive sentences since it’s separate content but maybe you have to think about it from an accessibility standpoint?
