 * The error message is generated by the commercial (and apparently German only)
   plugin wpseo. I would recommend you to contact their support since support for
   commercial products is not allowed in this forum: [https://wpseo.de/support-anfrage/](https://wpseo.de/support-anfrage/)–
   or you deactivate the plugin and use one of the many alternatives for it: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/seo/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/seo/)

 * Yes, it is, as I have already written. What does their support say about it? 
   Or have you simply deactivated it in the meantime?
