 * Dear Forum users,
 * when I try to export the Yoast Seo settings i get the following PHP errors:
 *     ```

 * Don’t know what to do. I downloaded a fresh version of the template.php from 
   WordPress 4.5.3 but there is no difference betweeen the new file and mine – as
   expected.
 * Thanks in advance!
    Kind regards -reeve

 * Sometimes strange behavior may be caused by a plugin or theme conflict. If you
   are unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we wrote a small guide that will
