 * The hosting company checked the ERROR log and discovered it is caused by the 
   Simmer Recipe Plugin.

 * Hi @rbennet,
 * I noticed you were able to eliminate the issue by removing the Yoast plugin when
   running Simmer on your website. This error is caused only when saving WordPress
   content with a shortcode. To run your site without this error, deactivate the
   Yoast SEO plugin.
 * The Pro version of the Simmer plugin includes a patch to fix this conflict. The
   Limited version of the plugin will be released with this same patch in 2018.
 * Kind regards,
    Simmer
