    I have been using Yoast SEO for a few years and I love it. But for the last few weeks, ever since I updated to WordPress 4.8.1, I have been having trouble with the meta description box. It allows me to add a focus keyword, but that is all. I can’t see the slug, the meta description, or any of the helps to improve things from red to orange to green. I have read and tried everything in the help forums and the Yoast site, but nothing seems to work. I miss this feature a ton, and am hoping someone can help me figure out how to fix it.

    Sometimes strange behavior may be caused by a plugin or theme conflict. The fastest way to rule out conflicts is to deactivate all non-Yoast plugins and switch to a standard theme like Twenty Seventeen. If this resolves the issue, you have a conflict and should activate one plugin at a time until you locate the conflict. Finally, after all plugins are active, switch to your theme. This will narrow down the conflict to a specific plugin or theme.

    If you are unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we wrote a small guide that will walk you through the steps. You can find it here: How To Check For Plugin Conflicts
