          We are getting "Multiple meta descriptions found!" error when testing meta in the Chrome MozBar extension. We are using the Wordpress All in One SEO plugin. Thinking there may be a conflict with default meta description being blank and needing removed to not conflict with meta generated by All in One SEO.

          Curious if anyone has come across this and any info on eradicating the issue would be greatly appreciated. Most likely a newbie question on my part.

          Thanks!

            I think I misunderstood - I thought you were reporting an issue with the MozBar, but it sounds like you are asking for advice on an issue that surfaced through the MozBar.  I will let you guys figure it out from here!

              I checked the homepage and the housing page and both have the blank description tag. It definitely looks like a plugin/theme issue. Looks like your All in One SEO plugin descriptions are showing alright. Check in your theme files, specially header.php and see if there's an empty description tag in there. You never know, it happens sometimes 🙂

                Thanks a bunch Mike,  I'll give that a go and continue to troubleshoot plugin conflicts.

                Hello Jon,

                Thanks for your help. Below is the info any suggestions are appreciated!

                Site: http://www.liveinspringfieldmo.com/

                -Seeing it site wide and other sites we recently launched so assuming I may need to hit up All in One SEO support and continue to troubleshoot conflicts as Mike mentioned.

                MozBar version: 2.63

                Browser: Chrome

                  Hello!  A few questions:

                  • are you using version 2.63 of the MozBar?
                  • are you seeing this on any particular sites or pages?
                  • Which browser are you using?

                  I would be happy to test this end to see if I can replicate the issue!

                  Thanks,

                  Jon

                    I've had this issue twice in the past. Once was because of a conflict between All In One SEO and another plugin which was fixed by updating the plugins. The second time was after a theme change where it turned out the theme had an internal suite of SEO tools that were adding the secondary description which was fixed by shutting off those features. Without knowing all the details of your wordpress site, its a bit hard to determine the exact cause. Check that your theme doesn't have a function interfering with All In One and try turning off plugins to see if any of them are in conflict. Could be as simple as needing an update.

                      Missing description + Missing or invalid H1

                      So I have more than 1.4K Meta Data Issues that states that there is "Missing Description" together with "Missing or invalid H1" and I have spent so many hours trying to figure this out, still no luck.. The problem seems to be to add a description in a specific tag, for example: https://www.troyhoffman.com/blog/tag/courage The platform I use (Squarespace) doesn't allow me to add a description to e specific tag. Any ideas on how I can fix this problems? 5TBfuDj

                      Meta Tag Descriptions not being found in Moz Crawls

                      Hey guys, I have been managing a few websites and have input them into Moz for crawl reports, etc. For a while I have noticed that we were getting a gratuitous amount of errors when it came to the number of missing meta tags.  It was numbering in the 200's.  The sites were in place before I got here and a lot of the older posts no one had even attempted to include tags, links of the page or anything. As they are all Wordpress Sites and they all already had the Yoast/Wordpress SEO plug-in installed on them, I decided I would go through each post and media file one at a time and update their meta tags via the plug in.  I personally did this so I know that I added and saved each one, however the Moz crawl reports continue to show that we are missing roughly 200 meta tags.  I've seen a huge drop off in 404 errors and stuff since I went through and double checked everything on the sites, however the meta tag errors persist. Is this the case that Moz is not recognizing the tags when it crawls because I used the Yoast Plugin?  Or would you say that the plugin is the issue and I should find another way to add meta tags to the pages and posts on the site?  My main concern is that if Moz is having issues crawling the sites, is Google also seeing the same thing? The URLS include:
                      sundancevacationsblog.com
                      sundancevacationsnews.com
                      sundancevacationscharities.com Any help would be appreciated!

                      Need help understanding search filter URL's and meta tags

                      Good afternoon Mozzers, One of our clients is a real estate agent and on that site there is a search field that will allow a person to search by filtered categories. Currently, the URL structure makes a new URL for each filter option and in my Moz reports I get the report that there is missing meta data. However, the page is the same the filter options are different so I am at a loss as to how to proper tag our site to optimize those URL's. Can I rel canonical the URL's or alt rel them? I have been looking for a solution for a few days now and like I said I am at a loss of how to properly resolve these warning messages, or if I should even be concerned with the warning messages from Moz (obviously I should be concerned, they are warning messages for a reason). Thank you for your assistance in advance!

                      301 or canonical for multiple homepage versions?

                      I used 301 redirects to point several versions of the homepage to www.site.com. i was just rereading moz's beginners guide to seo, and it uses that scenario as an example for rel canonical, not 301 redirects. Which is better? My understanding is that 301s remove all doubt of getting links to the wrong version and diluting link equity.

                      Is there a tool to upload multiple URLs and gather statistics and page rank?

                      I was wondering if there is a tool out there where you can compile a list of URL resources, upload them in a CSV and run a report to gather and index each individual page. Does anyone know of a tool that can do this or do we need to create one?

                      I just ran our first SEOMoz pro report and it's showing that every article page on our site is missing descriptions. However, it's visible on the source and Google seems to be picking them up. 
                      Can you please tell me why SEOMoz is makring them as missing? Are we doing something wrong here? http://notebooks.com
