 * Hi,
    I love Yoast SEO plugin But I think there has been an error for Meta Description.
 * I changed Title and Description about 3 weeks ago, The title was changed perfectly
   on Google. But not meta description. All the page’s description is not working
   for me on Google. Included main page…
 * lbtstore.com.. This is my site. please check for the error and please let me 
   know how to fix this.
 * Thank you in advance.

 * And I checked for the google search console the crawling was ok. There is no 
   error. So it is definitely something wrong with plugin~~ sadly..

 * Okay, here is some very basic help …
 * a) review your “page source” to see WHAT your meta data “actually” looks like—
   ignoring anything in the Yoast admin pages.
 * Does the META data in your post page head look correct; is the correct description
   there?
 * b) if no, then you may have issue with plugin conflict, site setup, theme issue
   and you will need to debug which element causing plugin to NOT work
 * bb) if yes, then you have to wait for Google to re-read your pages and see the
   new elements and update their dbase.
 * c) you can force this a little bit by resubmitting your sitemap via your search
   console account (webmaster tools)
 * Obviously remember when you change your meta data a good common practice is
    
   1) clear caching plugin and/or CDN caching 2) potentially clear mod_pagespeed
   cache if using it 3) clear transients with wp-optimize plugin or similar 4) resave
   permalinks 5) change the Yoast sitemap size from 1000 to 999 which makes different
   set of indexes; then ‘test’ and ‘resubmit’ via search console; worst case delete
   old sitemap in your account and resubmit as new sitemap.
 * All of those may help some of you new to this whole process.
 * On the other hand, note there are some wonky things with the plugin I have reported
   as a PRO user + news seo add-on. So, your mileage may vary 🙂

 * Neotrope, Thank you for the great tips.
 * I think, I need to wait a bit until google to re-read my page..
 * I just want to ask one more thing.
 * Can I Change The Sitemap Change Frequency? If there is way to change the frequency..
   please let me know hot to do it.
 * Thank you again!

 * L Brava, you should let Google crawl naturally. For best crawl rates, create 
   great backlinks to all relevant pages in the site and ensure your navigation 
   isn’t too deep or has bottlenecks to key content so you make the most of all 
   crawl velocity.
