Comments on: How to use the Yoast SEO Plugin to grow your blog

So, my best guess is it’s probably nothing to do with Yoast, but rather it’s a plugin conflict, or something similar… In other words another plugin you have on your website is causing problems with Yoast. Have you updated any plugins or added any new plugins lately? If so, that’s the one I’d try first. Deactivate that plugin, clear all your caches and see if the Yoast menu comes back. If not, then you’ll need to do some more thorough work. I recommend following the procedure outlined in this post https://yoast.com/help/how-to-check-for-plugin-conflicts/ If that doesn’t clear up the problem then you could try contacting your host for help. Hope you get it fixed!

This is great information and maybe you can help me even further. Today my Yoast menu disappeared from WordPress? I used it this morning and now it’s just gone and I’ve googled everything and can’t find an answer. Everything is set up correctly (or so it seems).

Ok wicked, so Yoast isn’t as scary as I first thought then – hopefully!

Quick question about the site mapping… Is this something that I shouldn’t worry about until my site is actually live or might as well i do it now? I havn’t read your search console post yet as i was going to leave that until a little later so I don’t have that all set up yet…

Thanks!

So pleased you found this helpful. Strange that you can’t add the meta tag. I’ve never had a problem with that before and I’m not sure what that could be – perhaps contact Yoast for help? Eb x

A very helpful post and I’ve implemented some of the suggestions to my Yoast plugin. Unfortunately I can’t seem to add the meta tag for Google verification as I keep getting an error message – any ideas?

Super helpful and informative Eb! I have just gone and added 3 more variations of my blog’s url to search console as all I had was https one!!! You live and learn, you read your blog and learn too! Another thing is the cornerstone content, I had no idea what it was all about and now I do. THANK YOU! 🙂 x
