@databell96 We’re sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue. We understand that you have received a notification saying that ‘Because of a change in your Home URL setting, some of your SEO data needs to be reprocessed’. We know this can be alarming, so we’d be happy to clarify this for you.

The Yoast SEO plugin now detects any Home URL or permalink structure changes and since it’s a significant change, Yoast SEO needs to rerun the SEO data optimization. Sometimes you may not have changed anything related to the notice, but you are seeing the notification, and it’s confusing for you and we apologize for this.

If you use the Yoast Helper Tool does the issue resolve and that notification go away?

Please try the steps below:

i. Install & activate the Yoast Test Helper plugin: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/yoast-test-helper/
ii. Go to Tools -> Yoast Test
iii. Locate the Yoast SEO section and select the “Reset indexables tables & migrations” button
iv. Click the “Optimize SEO Data” button in the Yoast SEO->Tools section.

We look forward to your reply.

@aquilazo We’re sorry that you are getting the error “Either ‘name’ or ‘item.name’ should be specified” in your Google Search Console related to the Yoast-generated breadcrumbs.

This warning typically occurs when the breadcrumb schema markup does not have a title. This could mean that either the page itself doesn’t have a defined title (appears as (no title) in the page overview), or has an empty breadcrumb title.

Would it be possible for you to edit that specific page and set a breadcrumb title, save the changes, and then rerun the URL through Google’s Rich Results Tool and see if that resolves the issue? You can follow the steps in this article to set a breadcrumb title – https://yoast.com/help/the-breadcrumbs-title-setting/

@blue_life Thanks for your reply.

The main reason a URL wouldn’t appear in the sitemap is that it’s setting for ‘Show in search results’ to ‘No’ either in the Yoast SEO>Search Appearance area (where you can set this value for the entire content type or taxonomy) or for that individual page in the Yoast meta box that appears below the content when you are on the edit screen. When this value is set to ‘No’ it sets the robots meta tag to ‘noindex’ and the page/pages are removed from the sitemap.

Can you please check that for both of these that the ‘Show in search results’ setting is set to ‘Yes’?

We also have a guide on setting this value here: How do I noindex URLs?

@debbiewaller Thanks for your reply.

Regarding your question, we aren’t able to recommend specific developers for you, but a good place to find them would be through a developer related channel such as GitHub or StackOverflow, or through a site like Upwork.com.

@bosendorfer You’re welcome and please let us know if there is anything else we can help with.

@sa5awii92 Thanks for your reply.

We checked on your sitemap at https://dealinsi.com/sitemap_index.xml and were able to confirm that it does contain child sitemaps (such as https://dealinsi.com/post-sitemap.xml and https://dealinsi.com/page-sitemap.xml) and is being generated as expected (see image here).

As for the discovered URLs showing as 0 on the main sitemap_index.xml, this is due to the sitemap index only containing links to the child sitemaps and not URLs of the site’s pages, as those are contained within each of the respective child sitemaps.

If you aren’t seeing any URLs as discovered when inspecting the child sitemaps in Google Search Console, we’d recommend to first try removing the sitemap_index.xml and then resubmitting it.

@rohit_gomgee You can limit the number of sitemap entries by using the filter wpseo_sitemap_entries_per_page. Here follows example code to limit the max entries to 100:

/* Limit the number of sitemap entries for Yoast SEO */
function max_entries_per_sitemap() {
    return 100;
}

add_filter( 'wpseo_sitemap_entries_per_page', 'max_entries_per_sitemap' );

We also have more information on customizing the sitemap here, and you can also find the developer documentation on this here.

@cnequips Thanks for your reply and for providing this information.

Can you also please let us know what the PHP version you are using on your site is?
