Hello everyone,
I'm encountering an issue after updating the SEO Optimization plugin. The error message is as follows:
Uncaught ReferenceError: wpData is not defined at main.js:12:56
This error occurs on my blog's homepage, and now the entire page is not rendering properly—it's just showing a blank screen. I've tried deactivating the plugin and clearing the cache, but no luck so far. Has anyone experienced a similar issue, and do you know how to fix it?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Chris,
It sounds like you're dealing with a JavaScript error related to the SEO Optimization plugin after its update. The "Uncaught ReferenceError: wpData is not defined" message suggests that there's a script conflict or a missing dependency in the plugin. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and hopefully resolve the issue:
Deactivate the Plugin: Since you've already tried deactivating the plugin and it didn’t help, ensure it’s completely disabled. You might need to do this via FTP or your hosting provider's file manager if the dashboard is inaccessible.
Check for JavaScript Errors: Use your browser's developer tools (F12) to check for any other JavaScript errors that may provide clues.
Restore a Backup: If you have a recent backup of your site, consider restoring it to a point before the plugin update.
Update Other Plugins and Themes: Sometimes, other plugins or themes can conflict with updates. Ensure everything is updated to the latest versions.
Contact Plugin Support: If the issue persists, reach out to the plugin’s support team. They may have encountered this issue before and can offer specific guidance.
Consider Alternatives: If the problem remains unresolved, you might need to look for alternative SEO plugins that provide similar functionality without conflicts.
For more detailed troubleshooting, you can check out resources like WordPress site or relevant forums.
Good luck, and I hope your site is back up and running soon!
