Thesis Vs Yoast Wordpress SEO Plugin

[PerchDigital]

Hi All.

I've noticed some issues between the thesis themes and Yoast's plugin, namely, thesis doesn't recognise Yoast's plugin in for title tag and meta description. Is there a way to overide this?

Yes. You will need to edit the header.php and replace the thesis <title>...</title> with
 <title><?php wp_title(''); ?></title>

UPDATE: Okay, scrub that. Just looked at my thesis header.php and I can see it is created using hooks, rather than PHP directly in the header file.

Take a look at this URL discussion marked as RESOLVED on Wordpress.org forum http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-missing-meta-description-for-homepage Let us know how you get on with that.

Good stuff! It seems that this issue is tripping a few people up. If this turns out to be the definitive solution be sure to update this thread - I wont be able to sleep until I know I've truly earned my first Moz Points! ;o)
