Hi! It sounds like you’re running into a common issue where SEO plugins like Yoast SEO or All in One SEO aren’t updating the homepage title and meta description. This can happen due to a few reasons:
Caching Issues – If your site uses a caching plugin (like W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, or server-side caching), changes in titles and meta may not appear immediately. Clear your site and browser cache after making updates.
Theme Overrides – Some WordPress themes hardcode the homepage title and meta tags, which can override the plugin settings. Check your theme’s settings (often under Appearance → Customize → Site Identity) and make sure it isn’t overriding your SEO plugin.
Homepage Setup – Go to Settings → Reading and confirm whether your homepage is set as a “Static Page” or “Latest Posts.” For a static page, Yoast and other SEO plugins only allow meta changes on that page, not the blog index.
Plugin Conflicts – Occasionally, multiple SEO plugins or other optimization plugins can conflict. Deactivate all other wise rank SEO plugins except Yoast and check if the changes take effect.
Server or CDN Caching – If you’re using a CDN (like Cloudflare) or server-level caching, you may need to purge caches there as well.
