XTEMOS AND YOAST SEO Headings

Hello,

I have an error from Yoast SEO in readability analysis – “Subheading distribution: 1 section of your text is longer than 300 words and is not separated by any subheadings. Add subheadings to improve readability.”

As I scanned, problem is caused by using Xthemos Element “section title” in Elementor, I tried to use Basic “heading” from Elementor and problem dissapears.

To tell the truth I like xtemos section title more than elementor basic heading, so can it be fixed?

Hello,

Could you please check how it works with some default WordPress themes like TwentyTwenty or WooCommerce Storefront to understand is it our theme issue or not?

Regards

Problem persists with default theme, I think its caused not by theme, but by element provided by theme in Elementor.

If it persists with the default theme then it can’t be caused by our theme element. It doesn’t work at all when you switch to another theme on your website.

I think you didn’t get what does the Yoast SEO error mean and because of that you made that conclusion.
Error tells us that there are no headings, it means that Yoast can’t read Xtemos title element as H2 or H3 text, if I disable theme and element won’t work, ofcourse problem will persist, because there still wont be any heading but when I replace Xthemos headings with Elementor default heading element problem disappears because Yoast now can see headings between paragraphs.

OK, could you please provide us with your admin access and write an instruction about how to test this problem on your website?

Excuse me I can’t provide my website access, I don’t have a permission but I think you may have your own website I’ll explain how to test it.
Just create new post with 2 text element, with more than 150 and less than 300 word in each.
between them put xthemos title.
Check yoast SEO readibility analysis in Edit mode, there should be an error – “Subheading distribution.”
After this change xthemos title with Elementor default title and error should be gone.

Yes, we see the problem on our side as well. It will be fixed in our next update. Note that it doesn’t influence your real SEO.

There is another problem with Yoast, when I use “Blog” element in Elementor I get these 3 errors:

1. Keyphrase in introduction: Your keyphrase or its synonyms do not appear in the first paragraph. Make sure the topic is clear immediately.

2. Keyphrase density: The focus keyphrase was found 1 time. That’s less than the recommended minimum of 2 times for a text of this length. Focus on your keyphrase!

3. Text length: The text contains 132 words. This is far below the recommended minimum of 300 words. Add more content.

but those errors in are not real… I have more than 300 words and etc…

when i delete blog element these problems dissapear.

Hello,

We have tested this on our side but didn’t find any of the mentioned errors https://gyazo.com/9d4fdcba38d4347155be5110129ee539

Here is a screenshot of how it looks https://gyazo.com/d48e39e2912bc433b22375366838e0e5
