 * WordPress checks the content of a page for an [audio] shortcode to enqueue assets
   to render the audio player, something about having Yoast enabled with the classic
   editor seems to break this and prevent to assets from loading.

 * Hi [@wigglypoppins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wigglypoppins/)
 * This is the support forum for “The SEO Framework” plugin, not Yoast SEO.
 * You can get support for Yoast SEO here: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-seo/](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordpress-seo/).
   
   Looking at the threads there, you’re not the only one experiencing the issue.
 * It’s odd for an SEO plugin to affect other plugins’ assets or shortcodes. The
   SEO Framework does not interfere.

 * Apologies, you’re right, I’ve search SEO Framework instead of Yoast.
 * We use SEO Framework for most clients apart from the one with this issue so it’s
   likely muscle memory and the fact that I’d not woken up properly yet when I posted
   this, my bad!

 * No worries 🙂 Thank you for supporting TSF!
 * Feel free to open a new topic if you ever need support in the future. Have a 
   beautiful day!
