You may follow the steps here: [https://yoast.com/help/how-to-find-javascript-errors-with-your-browsers-console/](https://yoast.com/help/how-to-find-javascript-errors-with-your-browsers-console/) * Thread Starter [angelus197](https://wordpress.org/support/users/angelus197/) * (@angelus197) * [4 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-cannot-optimize-seo-data/#post-15141300) * There are no javascript errors, there is only a warning with yellow background, something about the non-standard “zoom” property. Optimization bar get stuck when it is full, and the error message by YOAST plugin doesn’t appear, it only appears when I press any link to exit that section, so it appears during 1 second and I can’t press the little arrow to expand and see the error message. I think I was able to see it one time going back on my browser, now I can’t see it because the page reloads completely so optimization button appears again. * Plugin Support [Maybellyne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maybellyne/) * (@maybellyne) * [4 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/i-cannot-optimize-seo-data/#post-15142796) * Thanks for following up with us. * Can you please try resetting our indexables in the database tables by following the steps below? * 1. Install & activate the [Yoast Test Helper plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/yoast-test-helper/) 2. Go to Tools > Yoast Test 3. Locate the Yoast SEO section and click on the ‘ Reset indexables tables & migrations’, ‘Reset Prominent words calculation’, and‘ Reset Internal link counter’ buttons. After each click, the page will reload to confirm that each reset was successful. Note: Resetting the optimization doesn’t undo any of the hard work you’ve put into the plugin as the SEO data is also stored in WordPress’ default tables. It’ll just reset the custom Yoast tables that contain the combined data pulled from those default tables. 4. Go to SEO > Tools, and under SEO data, click the “Start SEO data optimization” button to allow Yoast to rescan your content. * For your site’s health and safety, we recommend creating regular backups of your site and database. This is especially important before making important changes on your website.
