Dear support, I found a little bug I think. When I have done my settings and export the settings.ini file and build a new site and import that file again, it does not setup the RSS settings correctly.
The box is then empty after import. Also the breadcrumbs are emptied.
Have a look at these locations in the settings. I did inspect the ini file and it is inside it, at least the line of text that is written for RSS (After post RSS text)
But it does not Import and overwrite it so the box is empty same goes for the Tab next to it, Breadcrumbs.
How I fixed this is use a older version before 14.x, make all my settings and then use a plugin named Export Options to export a JSON file.
In this JSON file are all the settings from MySQL wp_options table but I edit this JSON file and remove all data except lines for Yoast SEO
If I now build a new website and before I activate Yoast SEO 13.x I always Import the JSON file I just made and now all settings are back.
If I then update to the latest version and now activated it, it ‘sees’ these settings and now all options are correct.
Yes, in this case breadcrumbs are as it was before the export, same goes for RSS, the text in the box is back again.
But when using Yoast own export to ini and import it seems to skip these 2 sections/ parts. (RSS and Breadcrumbs)
It would of course be great if it worked using the Yoast zip as I do not have to use a other plugin, although Options plugin is very good for a new site as you can Import all options before you even activate plugins.
It is very old, about 6 years but it works perfect. I thought about helping with this project but is not needed as it just works on every new WP site. Here is the link:

Maybe you can have a look at this and if I need to give more info let me know.
Thanks!
