Missing Meta description issue reported

[basezap]

Moz says missing meta description, however the meta description exists properly (using yoast plugin)

eg of link reported by moz for missing meta description :

https://www.basezap.com/reinstall-os-in-vps-using-solusvm-panel/

It is giving same error for many blog posts, as same time, for some articles the issue isn't reported. Although the method for meta description is same for all the posts.

Can anyone explain if its a common bug in moz site analysis or I am following something wrong ?

BZ,

You don't actually have a proper meta description on the page you showed. Your meta description would be constructed like this in your source code:

But I'm  not seeing it there.  Be sure you're looking closely at the instructions on Yoast.

Thanks for the revert Chris,

Just a quick followup question, doesn't og:description meta is equivalent ?  https://prnt.sc/sie2ky

If not, then for sure, we need to see why  format is missing.

That's your open graph description, which gets displayed when your content gets shared on social media. But it is not what the search engines use.  With out a proper meta description tag, Google will take a snippet of text from the page that it feels is representative of the answer the searcher was  looking for when they performed their search.  Even  with a proper description, Google may automate one that's different, but it's best to craft your own if you're good with words.  The meta  description doesn't impact rankings, though--just click through from the serps.
