The Yoast SEO plugin does a compatibility check with other plugins which might cause conflicts with it.

The Yoast plugin attempts to look in `ABSPATH.'/wp-content/plugins'` which doesn’t cause a show stopper error, but you will get warnings about activating a plugin generating unexpected output.

The fix for it is changing line 112 in `wordpress-seo/admin/class-yoast-plugin-conflict.php` to:

```
$plugin_details = get_plugin_data( ABSPATH . '/../app/plugins/' . $plugin );
```

I don’t know how bedrock or Yoast fix this issue though, as there is no wordpress way of getting the plugins directory afaik.

Anyways, just wanted to let you know as I spent all morning tracking this down and couldn’t find the topic on discourse.

He’s `__doing_it_wrong`:

Should be using `WP_PLUGIN_DIR` which uses `WP_CONTENT_DIR` which Bedrock sets properly.
