OK, I did get the description I wanted in the source code… Both in the decsription and og:description i.e.,

<meta name="description" content="MY DESCRIPTION"/>
and
<meta property='og:description' content='MY DESCRIPTION'/>
and, I also checked these:-

<meta property='og:url' content='https://MYBLOG.com/'/>
<meta property='og:site_name' content='MYBLOG'/>

Even after having that in the source code, it still doesn’t work for the homepage. I used Meta Tag Analyzer, but it still says I have no description even after having it in the source code of my website. The Meta description displays correctly for every other post when Meta Tag Analyzed. Any ideas?

Sorry to say, but disabling all plugins and then adding the meta description doesn’t work for me either.

Someone who could help fix this issue??

That didn’t work for me.
As for,

Yoast SEO plugin does allow you to add a <meta> description tag to your head via the WP-Admin if you have a page set as your front page.

Actually, it doesn’t. I have a page set with permalink to my front page. I tried adding the meta description via the Yoast plugin options which appear below the edit page window, but soon after updating the page all that was typed into the meta description blank just disappears.
