 * Hey guys,
 * Seo yoast used to redirect to the image media folder in WP-content, for example,
   wp-content/uploads/2017/08/image-here-as-example-min-1.jpg
 * and it used to redirect to the page containing the image. I check this in Yoast
   and it is still enabled.
 * I think you guys stopped that. Why? Or how do you enable this to redirect to 
   the page containing the image.
 * Thanks,
 * Greg

 * From Yoast SEO v7.0, we no longer redirects the media (attachment) pages to the
   attached pages. Yoast SEO now redirects all the media attachment file to the 
   media file itself as previously this feature didn’t work very well when a single
   media attached to multiple pages. So, the plugin couldn’t make any redirects.

 * That makes sense if the image is attached to different pages.
 * Personally, I thought it was better when you redirected to the page. What I would
   do is redirect to the original page only. If that would be possible.

 * Hello [@gfowler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gfowler/)
 * It was a decision made by the Yoast team with the release of Yoast SEO v7.0. 
   If you want to request to have this feature wherein it would redirect to the 
   attached parent post URL, there is currently an open issue here — [https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/9316](https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/9316)
 * It is currently under review by the development team.

 * We’ll be setting this to resolved for now. You may want to track the relevant
   GitHub issue to know once there is an update on the issue. Thanks!
