SEO not working properly

    Hello,

    After updating to the newer version, Yoast SEO is no longer counting characters correctly as well as not recognizing outbound and internal links.

    For example, the article I’m working on has a word count of 423, 2 outbound and one internal links. However, SEO is stating:

    “Outbound links: No outbound links appear in this page. Add some!
    Internal links: No internal links appear in this page, make sure to add some!
    Text length: The text contains 63 words. This is far below the recommended minimum of 300 words. Add more content.”

    WP Current version is 6.0.1 and Yoast SEO Version 19.3

    Thank you for your support!

    Hello,

    It looks like this issue occurs when using

    in articles. Removing blockquotes from articles resolved the issue.

    It looks like this issue occurs when using <blockquote> in articles. Removing blockquotes from articles resolved the issue. Words, links, keywords inside <blockquote> are not analyzed by the SEO.

    Latest update didn’t resolve the issue. So for now we are not using blockquotes in articles until this is resolved.

    Thank you for your support!
