Multiple meta description tags for posts in Ahrefs

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with multiple meta description tags in Ahrefs. To address this, you can control how Rank Math uses the Excerpt for your posts.

1. Set a Custom Meta Description: The easiest way to ensure that Rank Math uses your custom meta description instead of the Excerpt is to set a custom meta description for each post. You can do this by:

   • In the post editing screen, click the Rank Math icon.
   • In the General tab of the Rank Math metabox, click Edit Snippet.
   • Enter your custom meta description in the Description field.

   

2. Change Default Variable for Description Template: If you want to change how Rank Math handles the Excerpt, you can adjust the default variable for your Description Template:

   • Go to Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta.
   • For posts, navigate to Posts → Single Post Description.
   • Click the downward arrow to reveal the available variables and select your preferred option.

   

By setting a custom meta description and adjusting the template settings, you should be able to resolve the multiple meta description issue in Ahrefs.
