@alessioroma We’re sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue on your site.
Can you please let us know what you are using to translate the different language versions of your site?
Also, are you able to provide an example URL of one of the Google search queries where you are seeing this occur, so that we can check into this further?
Hello Devnihil!!
– Im using Translate press (ive asked help them too but without replies at moment) + DeepL
– https://www.google.com/search?channel=crow5&client=firefox-b-d&q=apewineboxes++f if you go to google.it
Ive made it easier for Google as im geolocated plus ive made Italy as international target, but nothing.
Strange thing is ive changed english word on meta descriptions, and now google is showing the translation on my header…
Thank you for you help Devnihil im so frustrated, hope i can adjust it as soon as possible
Ive just discovered, maybe the problem is related to another plugin or better to an add on of them. ill let you know in a couple of weeks. I would like to leave this 3d opened, ok?
There is also the following link in your website’s code:
<html lang=”en-GB”>
Please change it to <html lang=”it-IT”>
where can i add this?!
@alessioroma Thanks for your reply.
I checked on the Google search link you provided, however for me it showed the meta description in Italian (see image here).
Google will frequently change the exact results of a query depending on what it thinks is the most useful results for that particular user. Locale is certainly a factor in what language it displays, but it can also be based off your region settings for example. You can find more information on Google’s support page here as well.
Hello devnihil
Yesterday after posting this, ive changed language from us-US to it-It with a plugin, and ive also made the international target into italian, could it be the reason for you watching this? problem is that the meta title you watch is in english while the meta description in italian that makes a nosense, if you were not in google.it you should have watched both in english.
Personally i still watch that in english from google.it, and it makes me frustrated.
ive no other option to add a link of a forum in which i was looking for answer: you please have to focus on the fourth last comment, made by an italian connecting from USA who’s noticing something preatty wrong on my codes.
The english home page declares it-IT but the description is english, further more from the same query, from a english browser and from an italian one google does give 2 different results. He has noted also that the model of the english page redirects to the italian one.
Last, ive changed meta descriptions for that Melsheimer, and it is completely different from these 2…dont know waht it is happening.
TranslatePress the plugin im using for translating the website asked me to disable ad add on that can create conflicts, in 2 weeks it is supposed to notice the difference, but they are not sure this oroblem can be related..
as you can see a big problem here, what do you think? thanks for helping me and for your availability!!

Hi,
This looks more to be an issue of your chosen multilingual plugin, rather than a support issue for the actual Yoast SEO plugin. As mentioned previously, there are tons of different factors as to why your website would appear in different languages, depending on the locale as well as the location of the searcher.
We have several articles on international SEO and the usage of hreflang tags that we would like to direct you to – https://yoast.com/hreflang-ultimate-guide/ & https://yoast.com/what-is-international-seo/
Otherwise, we do recommend contacting the TranslatePress team for further assistance on this matter.
Thank you ive already asked them, let’s see what they reply, anyway ill check these links!! thank you!
Could yo leave this one open for a while, i think they are gonna reply me on Monday
Hi,
We’ll be leaving this thread open for a few days to see if any other users would like to chime in and provide input or suggestions.
We do hope you’ll be able to get support from TranslatePress as well.
We are going ahead and marking this issue as resolved due to inactivity. If you require any further assistance please create a new issue.
