    I use Yoast tool to import data from rank math to Yoast.
    everything moves completely. but when I check meta description(post and category), they did not come.
    I thank them because I have about 500k posts.

    How can I transfer data perfectly?

    Hello,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    We understand that after importing SEO data from RankMath to Yoast SEO, your meta descriptions were not imported.

    We recommend that you reset the Indexables tables and migrations by using the Yoast Test Helper plugin to see whether this resolves the issue for you. Re-indexing your site might force the plugin to copy your imported metadata to the new tables.
    1. Go to Tools → Yoast Test → Yoast SEO → Reset indexables tables & migrations options to reset it.
    2. Rerun the indexables analysis from the Yoast SEO → Tools → SEO Data → Start processing and speed up your site now option.

    After the process completes, please verify the meta-information is now visible on the page source.

    I did it but I get Oops, something has gone wrong and we couldn’t complete the optimization of your SEO data. Please click the button again to re-start the process.

    @maybellyne finally SEO Data Optimization is done. but nothing is changing. meta descriptions are empty!
    Do I have to come back to rank math?!
    Is there any way to transfer meta description?

    by the way, all of the posts have meta description and title after migration
    but terms(category and tag) have a null value
    rank math saves its data on the wp_termmeta table.
    Is there any SQL query to copy category and tag data from wp_termmeta to yoast indexable table?

    Could you help me?
    I manually copy all term data from wp_termmeta to wp_yoast_indexble

    UPDATE wp_yoast_indexable SET primary_focus_keyword = '$keyword', canonical = '$canonical', title ='$title', description = '$description' WHERE id = '$update_id

    after that, on the source page of a category, the meta description is updated as well. but the editing page description and title filed is empty!!!!
    I think yoast don’t read wp_yoast_indexable after I update it by SQL Query

    Hi @mohammad983,

    Sorry to hear this isn’t working for your site.

    Depending on what changes you’ve made to the database, it may be best to restore the database from a backup before reindexing your site using Yoast or testing this on a test site before running it on a production site.

    For sites with more than 10,000 posts, we’d advise using the WP CLI command to do the indexation on the server instead of going to SEO > Tools. You can read more about this here: WP CLI – Reindex Indexables command

    Does the error still appear?
