Post title: %page_title% error

    Hi,

    Since the last update we have noticed some sites have a variable %page_title% meta title for posts. In the options, if “Post Title Format” corrected to %post_title% we then see the expected meta title.

    I have tried to update all sites affected but sadly the settings on your plugin settings page do not appear to match the aioseop_options in the database so we have no way of being able to find out how many of our sites have this issue.

    Please look into this ASAP.

    Shane

    Hi Shane,

    Can you please send us an export file from one of the sites where it has %page_title% in the Post Title Format field along with a screenshot of that field, then we can take a look at it.

    To do an export, go to All in One SEO > Feature Manager and activate the Importer & Exporter module. Then go to All in One SEO > Importer & Exporter and select General Settings and click Export. Please contact us here https://semperplugins.com/contact/, referencing the URL for this forum thread then we can respond.

    There’s zero chance that anything in the last version of AIOSEOP would have modified your options.
    Looking at Google’s cache, your posts had %page_title% in them long before the last update of AIOSEOP. https://i.ibb.co/LxTGx98/Screen-Shot-2019-03-07-at-8-02-11-PM.png
    I’d say it’s a near certainty that a human manually changed this in the options.

    sadly the settings on your plugin settings page do not appear to match the aioseop_options in the database

    I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here. AIOSEOP stores its settings in the database in an entry called aioseop_options, which should match exactly what you have in your settings page.

    Hi Michael,

    Happily I have now managed to isolate the sites that had this issue – we found 5 sites in total which we have manually fixed. You’re absolutely right, the settings were indeed in the database as you describe and it was a minor typo in the script we built that was not looping through the database tables correctly.

    I’m not sure I agree that a human did this but either way it is now resolved for us. Thank you for your help and assistance.

    Shane 🙂
