 * Hi [@h2113616](https://wordpress.org/support/users/h2113616/)
 * You mentioned you tried to fix the SEO data optimization. Have you tried to reset
   indexables?
 * We have seen unexpected issues where the previously optimized data is invalid
   or incomplete. We’ll start with a reset of the optimization to ensure we’ve removed
   any invalid data. Let’s cover a few important things to be aware of beforehand.
 * First, we would understand if you were hesitant to reset the optimized data. 
   We can assure you that your hard work will not be lost as the default WordPress
   tables also contain the SEO data. This process will only reset the custom Yoast
   tables with the combined data pulled from those default tables.
 * Second, we recommend creating regular backups of your site and database for your
   site’s health and safety. Backups are especially important before making substantial
   changes to your website. It provides you with a safety net if something were 
   to go wrong. Learn more about [the benefits of regular backups](https://yoast.com/help/how-to-backup-your-wordpress-site/).
 * Now, back to the issue at hand. We know that resetting the data may sound intimidating,
   however, we will walk you through the process step by step. We’ve also summarized
   the steps below:
    1. Install & activate the [Yoast Test Helper plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/yoast-test-helper/)
    2. Go to WordPress dashboard > 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 the specific reset was
       successful.
    4. Go to WordPress dashboard > Yoast SEO > Tools, and under SEO data, click the“
       Start SEO data optimization” button to allow Yoast to rescan your content.
 * Please let us know if the reported issue remains after resetting the optimized
   data.
 * If the issue exists, kindly check the console area. Please check the browser 
   console for errors by following the article: [How to find JavaScript errors with your browser’s console?](https://yoast.com/help/how-to-find-javascript-errors-with-your-browsers-console/#utm_source=support&utm_medium=forum&utm_campaign=support-link)
