Hello,
Thank you for sharing the details and the solution you found. We’re glad to hear that you were able to resolve the issue.
Regarding the SEO settings, the SEO data for articles integrated with SP Page Builder was removed from the page options in a recent version. It is possible that your article contained legacy SEO data that had already been stored in the database, which may have contributed to the issue you experienced.
We also really appreciate you sharing your workaround. This can be helpful for other users who may encounter the same situation.
Thank you again for your feedback and for helping the community.
