Yoast SEO

If your listing is not working when Yoast SEO is active, make sure to enable “Advanced query detection” in FacetWP’s settings. (This setting was called “Strict query detection” in FacetWP versions older than v4.5).
Another thing to look out for when using Yoast SEO is to not enable the “Remove unregistered URL parameters” setting:

This setting is located under:
Yoast SEO > Settings > Advanced > Crawl optimization > Advanced: URL cleanup > Remove unregistered URL parameters
If you enable this setting, Yoast SEO will strip FacetWP’s URL parameters and create 301 redirects, both when the page is loaded with facet selections, or with AJAX when filtering. This redirect prevents facets from working.
Warning:Keep in mind that with the “Remove unregistered URL parameters” setting enabled, Yoast will only remove the URL parameters when not logged in . This can be confusing if you don’t see issues when developing, and facets malfunction when testing in another browser (logged out), or on mobile.
