Yoast SEO 7.9.1

Enhancements​

  • Improves the link to claim your website on Pinterest by directly sending you to the right location.
  • Adds the passive voice assessment for Dutch.
  • Adds a link to a relevant article about re-using keywords to the feedback of the assessment that checks if the keyword was used previously.

Bugfixes​

  • Adds a missing H1 heading to the Network Admin > SEO > Edit Files page.
  • Fixes the textarea sizes in the Search Appearance > RSS tab.
  • Fixes a bug where adding a company image in step 4 of the Configuration Wizard, would make the wizard crash.

  • Fixes a bug that caused keywords to be incorrectly recognized within possessive forms (e.g. Natalia in Natalia's fix).
  • Improves the recognition of keywords with special diacritics in the URL.
  • Improves keyword recognition through adding Spanish inverted exclamation and question marks to the rules that determine word boundaries.
