I'm getting an error about the open graph button in the plugin

[smmcats]

I have an error message on the top of my dashboard that says:
1 compatibility issue(s):

WordPress SEO (Can cause issues with SEO unless option in SEO > Social > Add Open Graph meta data > is unchecked.)

I don't have that option checked and I have no way to disable the error message. What can be done?

Is that the literal text of the error message ? if not, please give the literal message or show a screenshot.

If it is the literal message, than this is not a message which comes from WPSEO. Do you have any other SEO plugins installed ? If so, disable them one by one to see which one is causing the message to be displayed.

Same thing happens to me.

WordPress SEO (Can cause issues with SEO unless option in SEO > Social > Add Open Graph meta data > is unchecked.)

The box is unchecked, but the error message always remains. It's been this way from the start. I'm using the Enfold theme. Any ideas?

This error started appearing when I enabled the WordPress IDX plugin (Optima Express from ihomefinder). And it goes away when I disable WordPress IDX. I unchecked the "Add Open Graph meta data" box and haven't noticed any problems other than the error message always appearing.

@perfectweb1 you mean this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-idx/ ? I just scanned through their code and can't find the message text anywhere. Would be nice to know for sure where this message is coming from.

I'm having the exact same problem with idx as well. Can't get rid of the error message and is driving me nuts!

[jrfnl]

All: please give a link to the plugin you think might be the conflict cause, so it's possible to confirm.

I found the following two which may be the one you are referring to, but neither of them contain the warning text quoted:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-idx/
http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/optima-express

The ihomefinder website seems to be locked down by Wordfence and not accessible at the moment.

I am using http://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-idx/ . I also scanned the code for the error and could not find it. I have all plugins turned off except WordPress SEO and WordPress IDX. I only get the error if both are turned on, and it goes away if I turn either one off. I'm running WordPress 3.8.

[rustyellis]

I went ahead and looked at the elements of this message and found this:

<a href="plugins.php?s=WordPress+SEO">WordPress SEO (Can cause issues with SEO unless option in SEO &gt; Social &gt; Add Open Graph meta data &gt; is unchecked.)</a>

Does that mean that it is somehow pulling from the main plugins.php file somehow?

[perfectweb1]

@rustyellis The link in your last post shows an empty page.

I searched the whole wordpress 3.8 directory for any references to "open graph" and did not find any.

Despite the error message, I have not noticed any problems.

@rustyellis I get the impression that you were trying to post some code. Could you either edit your post or re-post the code and surround it by backticks ?

[rustyellis]

Sorry about that... I switched the ending carrots for the sake of reading

(a href="plugins.php?s=WordPress+SEO">_</a)

[jrfnl]

@rustyellis Hmm... sorry... I still don't understand exactly what you found and where....

[ihomefinder]

We're the authors of the WordPress IDX / Optima Express plugins.

The issue (as it relates to our IDX plugins) with WordPress SEO by Yoast is that the plugin indexes the the site and mistakenly grabs some of our javascript and adds it into a "og:description" meta tag in the HMTL. This tag is then being picked up by Facebook's sharing indexer as the site description. If you disable the "Add Open Graph meta data" setting in WordPress Dashboard > SEO (left menu) > Social (submenu) > Facebook (tab), the issue will be resolved.

Our plugins displays a message in the WordPress Dashboard if there are plugins / themes installed or WordPress settings that will cause compatibility issues with the IDX plugins. Our plugin does not currently have a way to check if setting in WordPress SEO was unchecked so the error will continue to display on the page.

WordPress SEO is perfectly compatible with our plugin as long as that one setting is changed. If you have any questions on this, please contact us.

@ihomefinder Thanks for the info...that clears things up. Please consider a feature request for a "disable warnings" setting. I am also using your plugin with the WP-Property plugin, and everything is working great together, except that means I get another compatibility warning, "Multiple IDX plugins are installed." There are no problems, but it looks bad to my clients to have 2 warnings on every page of the admin area, and it takes up valuable space. Thanks for participating in the discussion.

[SynergySquad]

@ihomefinder Is there a way to disable the notification? It definitely looks bad to my clients.

Closing this issue as we're not going to fix anything it seems :)
