Multiple meta descriptions found - MozBar
-
We are getting "Multiple meta descriptions found!" error when testing meta in the Chrome MozBar extension. We are using the Wordpress All in One SEO plugin. Thinking there may be a conflict with default meta description being blank and needing removed to not conflict with meta generated by All in One SEO.
Curious if anyone has come across this and any info on eradicating the issue would be greatly appreciated. Most likely a newbie question on my part.
Thanks!

I've had this issue twice in the past. Once was because of a conflict between All In One SEO and another plugin which was fixed by updating the plugins. The second time was after a theme change where it turned out the theme had an internal suite of SEO tools that were adding the secondary description which was fixed by shutting off those features. Without knowing all the details of your wordpress site, its a bit hard to determine the exact cause. Check that your theme doesn't have a function interfering with All In One and try turning off plugins to see if any of them are in conflict. Could be as simple as needing an update.

Hello! A few questions:
- are you using version 2.63 of the MozBar?
- are you seeing this on any particular sites or pages?
- Which browser are you using?
I would be happy to test this end to see if I can replicate the issue!
Thanks,
Jon

-Seeing it site wide and other sites we recently launched so assuming I may need to hit up All in One SEO support and continue to troubleshoot conflicts as Mike mentioned.
MozBar version: 2.63
Browser: Chrome

I checked the homepage and the housing page and both have the blank description tag. It definitely looks like a plugin/theme issue. Looks like your All in One SEO plugin descriptions are showing alright. Check in your theme files, specially header.php and see if there's an empty description tag in there. You never know, it happens sometimes

I think I misunderstood - I thought you were reporting an issue with the MozBar, but it sounds like you are asking for advice on an issue that surfaced through the MozBar. I will let you guys figure it out from here!
