    I upgraded Yoast SEO from 27.9 to 28.0 on a WordPress 7.0 site using the Hello Elementor Child theme.

    During troubleshooting I also used Yoast Test Helper to reset the indexables tables and migrations.

    After the reset:

    • The front-end HTML is correct.
    • <title> is correct.
    • Meta description is correct.
    • Canonical URL is correct.
    • og:url is correct.
    • Google Search Console now indexes the pages correctly.

    However, the WordPress admin list tables are incorrect.

    On both Pages and Posts, the Yoast columns:

    • SEO Title
    • Meta Description

    display the values from the first row on the current admin page for every row.

    Example:

    • If the first page on the screen is “About”, every row shows the About SEO Title and Meta Description.
    • If I navigate to page 2 of the Pages list, every row changes to the SEO Title and Meta Description of the first page on page 2.
    • Changing the number of rows per page changes which values are repeated.

    The issue occurs in:

    • Chrome
    • Firefox
    • Safari on iPhone
    • Incognito mode

    It affects both Posts and Pages.

    The live site metadata is correct and Google Search Console shows the correct metadata and canonical URLs.

    I have already tested by:

    • Deactivating Yoast Meta Sync
    • Deactivating Code Snippets
    • Deactivating WPCode Lite
    • Deactivating Post Types Order

    None of these changed the behavior.

    Is this a known issue with the Yoast admin columns in version 28.0?

    Hi @kpopesance ,

    The screenshot you shared is unavailable at this moment.

    Are you facing the same SEO title in the list of articles on a staging site?

    If the issue is specific to your staging site, we have an open GitHub report related to this. If you are seeing it on the live site, please follow these steps on the live site only:

    1. Install & activate the Yoast Test Helper plugin
    2. Go to WordPress dashboard > Tools > Yoast Test
    3. Locate the Yoast SEO section and click on the ‘Reset indexables tables & migrations‘, ‘Reset Prominent words calculation‘, and ‘Reset Internal link counter‘ buttons. After each click, the page will reload to confirm that the specific reset was successful.
    4. Go to Yoast SEO > Tools, and under SEO data, click the “Start SEO data optimization” button to allow Yoast to rescan your content.

    Do let us know how it goes.
