    Dear Sir,

    Good day to you!

    I am currently optimizing my product pages using the Yoast SEO plugin, where I add meta descriptions and focus keyphrases.
    Screenshot for reference:

    However, in the Gutenberg editor, below the Yoast SEO section, I’ve also noticed another SEO panel—this appears to be part of the XStore SEO options—where meta descriptions and keywords can also be added.
    Screenshot for reference:

    Since I’m using Yoast SEO as my primary SEO tool, I would like to know:
    Will the XStore SEO options conflict with Yoast SEO?
    If yes, should I disable the XStore SEO feature to avoid any duplication or conflict?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    We appreciate your detailed explanation and the screenshots provided — they are very helpful.

    Regarding your inquiry, the XStore SEO options are designed to offer basic SEO functionalities for users who may not be using a dedicated SEO plugin. Since you are already using the Yoast SEO plugin, which provides advanced and comprehensive SEO features, we recommend continuing to use Yoast as your primary SEO tool.

    There is no direct conflict between the XStore SEO options and Yoast SEO; however, having both active may lead to duplicate meta tags (such as meta descriptions and keywords), which could potentially confuse search engines and affect your SEO performance.

    To avoid any duplication or confusion, we suggest disabling the XStore SEO feature if you are fully utilizing Yoast SEO. This will ensure that only one set of meta data is being output on your product pages, maintaining clarity and consistency for search engines.

    If you need assistance disabling the XStore SEO options, please let us know, and we will be happy to guide you through the process.

    Best Regards,
    8Theme’s Team
