Well, that did not work.
BTW, the settings.ini and settings.zip files can up found in your uploads directory – the same location as your media files.

I think you are on the right path. I have done a new install on one of my sites and it worked as it should with no problems.
I have to believe it is somthing simple. the reinstall might do it.
I will be looking for the answer. Good luck.
So you uploaded a settings file that DID have the info checked in it that you wanted? Did you re-zip it before you uploaded it from your computer? Or did you view it on your server?
If you uploaded it through the backend with FileZilla or a FTP program, did it come up in the same format; .ini and not a .txt file?
I will look in my Uploads dir and see if I can find any differences.

Also, if you FTP the file, did it ask you to OK the replacement file so it could overwrite it?
Yes I see the file in Uploads. I use FireFTP inside FireFox and I checked inside my File Manager of cPanel.
If your uploaded file looks OK, I would guess that Yoast SEO is not reading the file right or something to that effect.
I know it’s a hassel, but you might try deleating WordPress SEO and then reloading it. Then upload the settings.ini file before you make any changes to the new upload copy of Yoast WordPress SEO.
Hope it helps.
