Hello thank you for your quick reply. I was able to manually update the sitemap url in the tools editor area of Yoast as you suggested to end with: /sitemap_index.xml and it seams to be working nicely now. I am able to see the “Page, Posts, Landing Pages & Categories” and my client’s images are showing up when I share their links.
Since the functions I was missing were restored, I didn’t have to turn of the Jet Pack plugin.
Thank you very much!! Have a wonderful day.
I will mark this topic as resolved. There was a conflict with the HUSTLE plugin – for pop-ups. When I disabled it, the error went away.
