# save/update metadata

 * Hi, I have a small problem with Yoast SEO metadata update, we use multisite and
   replicate posts (we use save_post HOOK) The problem is that the update function
   has a check if switch_blog is activated and it does not allow saving because 
   wp_insert_post was used to replicate the post (inside save_post).
    Is there a
   way to resolve the issue so that the update of the metadata will be done by force
   of case!

 * We can’t offer support on custom code (needed to change (core) features of our
   plugin). Since we don’t want to take the risk that we break your website by suggesting
   incorrect or incomplete code, we cannot advise you on how to make such changes.
   Maybe someone watching these forums can assist you further, but if your topic
   is inactive for 2 weeks, we’ll mark it as resolved to keep the overview.
 * Thank you for your understanding.
