Hello. I have created a custom rule to allow the QUIC IP’s and also disabled bot fight mode and still get the issue. “Response code is 403. Please make sure RestAPI is accessible.”
Is there anything else you can suggest I try?I get the following error:
Response code is 403. Please make sure RestAPI is accessible.
Disabling Bot Fight Mode isn’t an option, unfortunately.- This reply was modified 3 weeks, 2 days ago by thomaspaylor.

Hello, yes, Bot Fight Mode is active. I’ll add those IP’s to the allowed list in Cloudflare. Do I need to do anything else to get the service restarted once I’ve done that?
Thank you. Here are the details

It seems this was a cache issue and is now resolved.
Hello. Thank you for your response. My query was more to do with the %%cf_custom-field-name%% snippet which I’m using to auto-populate my meta descriptions. This takes the description of the custom post and uses it for the meta description field. The only problem is that these descriptions are around 300-500 words long, and I need them to be shortened. I wondered if there was a way to do this, so that Yoast automatically trims the (%%cf_custom-field-name%%) meta description down to a sensible number of characters, just like it does when you use %%excerpt%% ?
