Hi @Guepi

Thanks for using the Yoast SEO plugin and for creating the issue. I tried to replicate the issue using the ForumWP plugin and Yoast SEO plugin over the WordPress default theme Twenty Twenty-Four and noticed that the issue doesn't persist. See the forum topic created over here, which loads all the details without any issues. I also checked the page by deactivating the Yoast SEO plugin and noticed that the same output is showing in that case, too.

So, we recommend you reach out to the ForumWP plugin team to check this further. If you haven't yet tested with a default theme, we recommend you to test on a staging site with themes like Twenty Twenty-Four.
