    Hi there,
    unfortunately YOAST Seo is not inserting the meta description as i expect it.
    The description is set for every page in the meta box editor of YOAST, but when looking at the actual site, there is no meta description. The title is working fine.
    The site i am reffering to is http://www.soentgen-coaching.de/
    Does anyone know a solution?
    Thanks in advance 🙂
    Best
    Fabi

    Hi @fabianbau,

    I just checked your website and there are missing entire Yoast SEO section (in HTML code). It’s weird. It could be plugin conflicts or plugin is deactivated. If you can send more info, I’ll try to help.

    Hi @fabianbau,

    Please check whether your theme’s header.php file contains a call to wp_head().

    Hi @amboutwe,
    Thanks for your fast reply 🙂

    You are right. The theme does not call the wp_head() function in the header.php.
    What is a good way to call it and where in the code?

    @stodorovic: thanks for your answer as well 🙂

    It seems that the theme is pretty outdated. I can’t find your theme at any repository or website.
    If you want to add wp_head, you should to add this line into header.php. Example for minimal header.php:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<head>
        <?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
<body <?php body_class(); ?>>

    You can look https://github.com/WordPress/twentyseventeen/blob/master/header.php

    Hi @stodorovic,

    I inserted it into the header.php and it looks like it’s working just fine! 🙂
    Thank you for your help and effort.
