@mbrsolution Yes, tried a variety of keywords on different WordPress installations – same thing.

Anyone have any insights into a fix?

I’ve been able to duplicate this issue on three machines, using both Windows 7 and Windows 8, across multiple sites, even with all other plugins deactivated on my test installation.

Too bad Yoast won’t respond without an upgrading to their Pro version . . . that’s no assurance the issue will be addressed.

Anyone have a connection to Yoast, or using the Pro version that would permit some help from Yoast HQ?

I had to pull away from this project, but now I’m back on it. As of this morning, I’m not sure if anything has changed, but I’m unable to find any combination of settings (fast lossy toggled, metadata toggled) that retains metadata when tested with Jeffrey’s Exif Viewer.

For what it’s worth, why is removing metadata the default? Yes, it eats up *some* space, but what about the embedded color profile so the image displays correctly in various browsers? And basic copyright information that’s important the photographer to help protect intellectual property, provide contact information, etc. Pitching out metadata by default goes against every effort that’s being made on the Web to describe resources in a consistent and understandable way through tagging, schema, etc. It’s throwing out the baby with the bath water in my view. Every plugin that I’ve looked at does this be default apparently in an obsessive quest to squash file size. Metadata should be retained in all cases, both lossy and lossless, unless explicitly removed.

@mbrsolution I’m testing live on a shared hosting account at SiteGround. By the way, also tried Firefox, same result.

I just swapped-in the Twenty Fifteen default theme — same alerts from Yoast. At this point, I don’t see how it could be anything else but a problem with the plugin. It’s not seeing the focus keyword in the first paragraph or H2.

Default 2015 theme
WP 4.4
Yoast SEO 3.0.7
Chrome cache cleared

@mbrsolution I’m using the Total theme.

I can’t be sure, but I don’t recall having any problems with Yoast SEO and Total in the past.

I was able to replicate the Yoast alert messages for both H2 and “first paragraph” on my test site which has almost no other plugins and no caching.

I still see:

• The focus keyword doesn’t appear in the first paragraph of the copy. Make sure the topic is clear immediately.
• You have not used your focus keyword in any subheading (such as an H2) in your copy.

Keyword Density section of Content Analyzer is also having problems! See latest screenshot after re-installing the plugin (v. 3.0.7):

https://www.dropbox.com/s/uumydurh1k7501m/yoast-seo-keyword-density-error-01-02-2016-01.png?dl=0

This is not like what I’ve come to expect from Yoast’s products, which are generally excellent. Not sure what’s going on. Is it a bug or a conflict?

www.remarpro.com members: please test your installation and report your findings. Thanks!

@mbrsolution Temporarily copying the title into the H2 clears the red warning. But restoring the original phrase which contains the word “vaccine” —”<h2>Yearly Exams and?Vaccine Boosters</h2>” — still triggers a red alert in Content Analysis. Is there a requirement that the title exactly match the H2?Doesn’t make sense.

Correct, that error is shown in my screenshot. Hoping the folks at Yoast will jump in to fix this issue that must be affecting everyone who is using the Content Analyzer.

@royho Thanks! I actually found that plugin earlier, was hoping basic functionality was part of WooCommerce, but it seems it’s not.

I’m not sure why, but this issue appears to have resolved itself. In recent backups, all the zip files are being cleared off the server and moved to Amazon S3 as expected. Perhaps a temporary glitch with the hosting company?

Hi, here’s the debug data. Still getting the HTTP error as shown.

Excluding pages using the native Cache Exclusions list worked perfectly. Thank you!

Hi Brian,

We will be using WooCommerce on a different site soon, so it’s great to know it’s compatible with WordFence, but on this particular site, we’re using Give: https://givewp.com/

Give is a plugin made specifically for donations, and seems to be very well crafted. It integrates with Authorize.net, Stipe, PayPal, etc. In our case, we’re using Give to help raise funds for a school.

I’d hate to lose Falcon caching, so for now, I have enabled “Allow SSL (secure HTTPS pages) to be cached”.

Update: just found your doc about caching. How can I implement wordfence::doNotCache() on any arbitrary WordPress page?

@amr Thanks for confirming the fix. The new version of Postman works beautifully in these situations.

Awesome Jason! Your solution worked perfectly ??

The list Zend uses has apparently has not been updated to include some new TLD’s including .school (released this summer).

I trust you will add the “disable email validation” feature to new versions of Postman? (there are a lot of new TLDs coming)

Thank you Jason, I appreciate your considered, fast response on this. Another 5-star review for Postman!
