What did you expect to happen?

Just rendering normally

What happened instead?

All the page layout is broken

How can we reproduce this behavior?

Login to homepage/wp-admin, then Visit Site (or preview in every page).
Note that HTTPS is okay but only HTTP case is issue.

Can you provide a link to a page which shows this issue?

Cannot due to required to login

Thanks for reporting this issue. However, we're unable to reproduce this.

Sometimes strange behavior may be caused by a plugin or theme conflict. The fastest way to rule out conflicts is to deactivate all non-Yoast plugins and switch to a standard theme like Twenty Sixteen. If this resolves the issue, you have a conflict and should activate one plugin at a time until you locate the conflict. Finally, after all plugins are active, switch to your theme. This will narrow down the conflict to a specific plugin or a theme conflict.

If you are unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we wrote a small guide that will walk you through the steps. You can find it here: How to Check For Plugin Conflicts

We understand if you wouldn't want to deactivate your plugins and switch themes on a production site, so it may be preferable that you set up a staging environment for your tests.

If you're not familiar with a staging site, this article will help you get started: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-create-staging-environment-for-a-wordpress-site/

Can you please inform us of the results?

The problem is real. We just put some pictures here:

I can't use the report system nor the Yoast snippet preview. All the plugin is broken. Fortunatly the metas are still working.

@CarolineGeven If deactivate Yoast SEO plugin, rendering works correctly.

I can't not do that. We just use Yoast in many that if we deactivate we can broke the entire site. @CarolineGeven Where can I get the 4.3 versi贸n of Yoast Premium, my problem is with the latest versi贸n (4.3.1).

What's wrong with the plugin?
Update your premium plugin 4.3.1 https://1cert.ru/ on site and as a result got a problem.
What should I do?

Screenshots are attached!

@pacoesni Thank you))) I saw your post on Twitter.
Hopefully Yoast SEO quickly solve this problem! And why even why allow such mistakes? We could not test version and only after the update!

@mihalzasse Don't know. But I think Yoast would allow us to rollback if something like this happen again. I just rollback to 4.3 (a friend gave me a 4.3 package) and all is working again.

@pacoesni Thank you, I'll try and find the archived version 4.3, if you get the time, use this solution.

Just got an update 4.3.2 seems at this point that's all right, give it @pacoesni a try if it let me.
Thank Yoast SEO for efficiency!

@mihalzasse @CarolineGeven I confirm that 4.3.2 solved the problem. Thank you.

@mihalzasse How can I (not premium user) upgrade to version 4.3.2 ? /cc @pacoesni @CarolineGeven

@bjkim As far as I know if you do not use the premium version, unfortunately you do not get. But based on the experience all the innovations come in the free version, three months maximum.

@mihalzasse and @pacoesni, the issue @bjkim describes here, is a different one than you had. I'm glad to hear your issues for premium got resolved, thanks for letting us know.

@bjkim I understand the issue is gone when you deactivate Yoast SEO. As we cannot reproduce this issue on our own environment (testing website with only Yoast SEO active) we need to know if Yoast SEO interferes with another plugin. That's why I asked you to do a conflict check.

Could you please rule out any conflicts by deactivating all non-Yoast plugins and switching to a standard theme like Twenty Sixteen. If this resolves the issue, you have a conflict and should activate one plugin at a time until you locate the conflict. Finally, after all plugins are active, switch to your theme. This will narrow down the conflict to a specific plugin or a theme conflict.

If you are unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we wrote a small guide that will walk you through the steps. You can find it here: How to Check For Plugin Conflicts

Please let us know the results. Unfortunately we cannot do anything until we know if there is something interfering or not.

@CarolineGeven I think issues are same. Anyway, shoud I wait for 4.3.2? When you release? or How can I use 4.2 version?

@bjkim, the issues are definitely not the same. The issues @mihalzasse and @pacoesni were experiencing, were issues with premium features, which do not occur in Yoast SEO free. There will be no 4.3.2 release for free, as the fixes are not fixing anything for free.

The only way we can actually help you, is for you to do a conflict check or at least tell us which other plugins and which theme you are using.

Closing this issue because the issue is solved in Yoast SEO Premium and we don't have enough information about the mentioned issue in Yoast SEO Free to reproduce the issue. @bjkim feel free to open a new bug report if you are still experiencing problems. Please follow these guidelines to improve your bug report.
