Conversation thread

I had Yoast trouble shoot this and it was entirely my error.

I neglected to set > Settings > Reading > Homepage > to latest posts

Once I did that, the meta description area appeared and I was able to insert text

Thank you!

Hi,

Ahh, because you're using Static Homepage.

So, to edit the meta description - please go to Pages > All Pages > edit your "Homepage" > scroll down and you can see options for Yoast SEO > let's edit the meta description there.

Mine doesn't show that. (see screen shot)

When I click on the "editing the front page itself" , the hyperlink doesn't go anywhere

I'm using Yoast Premium

Hi,

You can fill the meta description for your homepage here: http://prntscr.com/u1z9xn

After done, clear the cache and check it again.

I just checked and I see everything working fine.

I'm using the "Home Page Layout" in Customizer on my website

When I check SEO - my site says "meta description missing" for the home page.

When I check in Yoast SEO. It provides a hyperlink to "You can determine the title and description for the front page by editing the front page itself" but = they hyperlink doesn't go anywhere....

Thanks!
