SEO Plugin Compatibility Issue with Asgaros Forum – Need Help
Quote from helendam1 on September 17, 2025, 8:59 amHello everyone, I am using Asgaros Forum on WordPress (version 6.x) combined with the Yoast SEO plugin, but I am having problems with Google not indexing individual topics correctly, meta descriptions are sometimes duplicated, and the Granny Game forum loading speed is noticeably slower when the number of posts increases. I have tried disabling cache, adjusting permalinks, and updating Asgaros to the latest version, but the situation has not improved. Has anyone encountered a similar situation and can share how to handle canonical/meta tags in Asgaros, or suggest a more compatible, optimized SEO plugin? I look forward to receiving experiences from the community. Thank you very much!

To fix it, you can manually define canonical URLs using a custom function in your theme’s `functions.php`, exclude forum pages from Yoast’s automatic meta handling, or use a more forum-friendly SEO plugin like **Rank Math** or **All in One SEO**, which offer better control over custom post types. Also, enabling a caching plugin like **WP Rocket** and optimizing your database can help improve loading speed as the number of posts grows. Nulls Brawl
