@colimz If the Wp_Yoast_SEO_Meta table is empty this is likely due to the SEO data optimization not having been performed yet. Can you please confirm whether you have performed the SEO data optimization yet?
To perform the SEO data optimization you would need to do the following steps:
• In WordPress, go to SEO>Tools
• Under the ‘Optimize SEO Data’ area, click on the ‘Start SEO data optimization’ button
However, for sites with more than 10,000 posts, instead of using the ‘Start SEO data optimization’ button, we’d advise using the WP-CLI command wp yoast index --reindex to do the indexation on the server. You can read more about this here: https://yoa.st/wp-cli-index

Hi @colimz
The wp_yoast_seo_meta table was deprecated in Yoast SEO v14.9. On a new installation, this table is not created anymore. So even if it is empty, it should be okay and everything else should work as expected.
