Zero Year in SEO Title of Archive List

    I am experiencing an unusual problem with the SEO title displayed in the browser tab – in both Chrome and Firefox. We are running a child theme of Twenty Twenty Sixteen 2.4 (WordPress 5.7.1, Yoast 16.2 with date archives enabled and a title of Date/Separator/Site title specified), but the error still occurs when we switch off our child theme and run vanilla Twenty Sixteen.

    If a full date (?/m=201901) is specified in the browser address bar, all is well and the month and year appear in the SEO Title in the browser tab. If just a year (/?m=2019) is specified, WordPress throws a PHP warning – Undefined index: 00 in /public/societies/cucrc/public_html/test/wp-includes/class-wp-locale.php on line 287 – and inserts a zero in the SEO Title rather than the year.

    This is not a big deal, but it would be nice to get rid of those pesky PHP warnings!

    Thanks for reaching out here. We’re sorry to hear that you’re having trouble with Yoast SEO.

    We looked at the relevant page and were unable to reproduce the issue. Can you please confirm where exactly do you see the relevant PHP warning? Is it appear on the front end part or on the dashboard of the relevant page?

    We look forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you for your very prompt response.  The PHP warning appears in the WordPress debug.log file.  We run our test system with debugging set:

    define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true); 
    if (WP_DEBUG) {
        define(‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true);   
        define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false);     
    }

    Hope this helps.  The error seems to be something to do with Yoast SEO internationalisation – requesting translation of a zero month number when no translation is required because the ‘2019’ in the URI cucrc.org/test/?m=2019 is already ‘translated’ and there is no month number present to be translated.

    For some reason, three PHP warning messages appear for each load of the page. When I do a trace – using get_queried_object_id() – the current object is returned as 0.

    That’s great – I have submitted a bug report. In the meantime I have eliminated the PHP warning by deleting the items Title and Page from the SEO title in the Yoast Date archives setting – and substituting the plain text ‘Date Archive’.
