Sometimes strange behavior may be caused by a plugin or theme conflict. The fastest way to rule out conflicts is to deactivate all non-Yoast plugins and switch to a standard theme like Twenty Fourteen. If this resolves the issue, you have a conflict and should activate one plugin at a time until you locate the conflict. Finally, after all plugins are active, switch to your theme. This will narrow down the conflict to a specific plugin or a theme conflict.

If you are unfamiliar with checking for conflicts, we wrote a small guide that will walk you through the steps. You can find it here: How To Check For Plugin Conflicts: http://kb.yoast.com/article/253-how-to-check-for-plugin-conflicts

If the bug persists even while using only Twenty Fourteen and only Yoast plugins activated, please file a bug report at: https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues This guide will help you with that: http://kb.yoast.com/article/180-how-to-write-a-good-bug-report

One more thing, some people are also reporting this on sites using Cloudflare’s flexible SSL. If that applies to you, then this entry might help: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cloudflare-flexible-ssl-making-sitemap-https?replies=3#post-7664695

Hi Mediaversa,

Please log into your website, and in “Settings” under “General settings” (for WordPress, not for our plugin), look at both the “WordPerss Address URL” and “Site Address URL” and ensure that neither has accidentally picked up a stray https entry.

Hi M,

This most often happens when one is trying to pack too many entries per page.

Our plugin gracefully handles pagination to offset this.

See screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/s47h50zkt

Try dropping that Max entries per sitemap to lower and lower values until you stop maxing out the memory.

Odds are that you have that set to a fairly high number.

Hi leadology,

Are you looking for the ping tools box?

If so, it’s in your WordPerss dashboard, under Settings, under Writing, under “Update Services”.

Hi AFotografy,

What is your website URL?

Hi Clive,

Thanks for emailing us!

Unfortunately, in order to do that, you will need to make custom edits to the core behavior of the plugin.

This code snippet may help you and your developer get started.

add_action(‘wp_head’, ‘remove_wpseo_og’, 1);
function remove_wpseo_og() {
remove_action( ‘wpseo_head’, array( $GLOBALS[‘wpseo_og’], ‘opengraph’ ), 30 );
}

That removed OG from EVERYTHING.

You’ll likely need to add some if statement to only do it for the events taxonomy.

​Even though we cannot be of any assistance, you’re completely free to change anything in the plugin to better suit your needs.
