Hello,
Thank you for reaching out about the issue with multiple meta description tags on your site. If Ahrefs is classifying your post/page excerpts as an additional meta tag, it could be due to a conflict between the theme-generated meta description and the SEO plugin’s meta description.
To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
-
Identify the Culprit: Activate your theme from Appearance → Themes and check if the theme is adding duplicate meta tags. If the theme isn’t responsible, enable your plugins one by one until you find the one causing the issue.
-
Adjust Theme or Plugin Settings: Once you identify the theme or plugin responsible for the duplicate meta tag, uninstall or adjust its settings to ensure it no longer generates a meta tag. If needed, contact the developer for support.
-
Use Filters: Some themes/plugins have specific filters to remove the meta tags they add. For example, the Hello Elementor theme can conflict with Rank Math. You can add a theme-specific filter to resolve this conflict.
If you are unable to resolve the issue using these steps, please consider reaching out to the developer of the theme or plugin for further assistance.
I hope this helps you address the issue with multiple meta description tags on your site. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
