 * Thanks Adam. Your suggestion to go through Troubleshooting Mode and enable each
   of the plugins to find the one causing the issue worked. Plugin 35 of 36 is Asset
   Cleanup Page Speed Booster and was causing huge delays in loading the data and
   graphs.
 * The plugin is mainly about loading only the JS and CSS needed for a page, but
   I my use of it was merely to get XML-RC (and pingback) option disabled via this
   plugin. I’ll find another plugin to do that.
 * Many thanks
   Paul

 * Hi
 * To reiterate what I’ve mentioned above, the Google screenshot I provided are 
   for indexed URLs. Yes, I use Console and the Yoast config for my tags and categories
   were done before they were indexed and last crawled.
 * Put this into Google as an example – site:paulmichaelphotos.uk/tag/south-west-
   coast-path/
 * The resulting item was indexed some time ago and was last crawled on 6th February
   23 according to Console. The description on Google is not what is set up in Yoast.
 * While that description may be OK – not much harm – for one of my tags, it is 
   likely that several tags will have been found on the page from where this one
   was lifted, and Google appears to set them all with the same description based
   on the page it found it. That is not good.
 * I don’t understand why Google is not finding and using the Yoast description.
 * Many thanks

 * Hi Maybellyne, thanks for responding.
 * Google has indexed the URLs that I have shown in the screenshot. I have had them
   set in the way you see them in Yoast for several months and Google has re-crawled
   many times since then.
 * So when you look at my screenshot of what Google has for the Photography tag,
   it is very different from what you see set by Yoast.
 * What could be causing this?
 * Many thanks

 * Hi
 * That was a great plugin and helped me to resolve 5 database entries.
 * It didn’t resolve the issue at first but I found a rogues CSS file I think belonging
   to the Theme that was referencing /home/hostID/etc. rather than my correct URL.
 * Thanks for your help

 * Thanks for responding. Yes, that could be the case from my previous host.
 * Over the weekend I did some analysis and found another possible reason. Many 
   of my images at varying-sized thumbnails didn’t get WebP formats created while
   other sizes did.
 * What I realised is that I use a plugin to create a tiled gallery without Jetpack.
   Others may do the same as this one does…
 * When you create a gallery, the tiled solution that is shown is made up of small,
   medium and larger images. I found that some of the sizes weren’t of the size 
   set in WP functions by the Theme. So these images with strange sizes are in the
   mix of the sizes set by the Theme and those set by WP itself. The generated WebP
   versions were created for all but the tiled gallery ones.
 * I wondered if the WebP generator adheres just to them and WP-sized images?

 * From what I can see it’s neither. I can use Cloudflare if needed, but I am targeting
   mostly UK visitors for fairly static content (no ‘snappy’ purchasing), so haven’t
   requested CDN services.

 * Thanks for this. It’s making sense. I’m on a LiteSpeed server now (not sure what
   I moved from) and have had to make a few additions to htaccess for other plugins.
 * Mod_rewrite is available. Would you know what I need to put into my htaccess 
   file?
