I have a problem regarding YouTube videos on the website. Every time I use an “embed” YouTube video in any post, Google indexes the post, but does not show it in the search.
If I remove the video and update the post, it appears in the search normally. Do you have any news about this being a problem regarding the theme? If yes, how to resolve it?

Thanks a lot

I would like to take this opportunity to inform that some posts without videos also cause the problem.
I believe the theme has something to do with it.
See this example, the post has no videos and does not appear in Google search, and in search console it shows as indexed.

Thanks for your help!
Hello,
Checking the article structure seems to be ok – https://i.imgur.com/rW9UCBD.png
Can you please check the search console reports? Normally when an article is not indexed you get a report related to the problems that why was not indexed – https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7440203?hl=en
Thank you!
Hi Calin,
On search console the post are ok.
It doesn’t appear in the search at all, in some posts this happens, in others it doesn’t.
I think it’s a problem with the theme, can you check please?
Hi cassiano12,
This is strange, because when a post can not be indexed there is a reason and this appears in GSC.
I also teste the article with the Schema.org and Rich Results Test – https://i.imgur.com/aH0Ge0Z.png and everything seems to be ok.
Do you use extra plugins for cache/optimize and CDN? if you do, then please make sure that all cache and cdn are cleared/purge when a post is updated or publish, I saw a similar situation when a user do not know that he has CDN and this was not set to be purged.
If the problem still persists after this, then please do a test using only the theme plugins and try to manually index the article: Indexing pages to be included in search results
Thank you!
I use only Cloudflare. But I will check.
And my question about the Youtube embed videos?
Thanks
I use Automatic Platform Optimization for Cloudflare.
Hi,
And my question about the Youtube embed videos?
Ensure that your website’s robots.txt file doesn’t disallow Google from crawling the embedded video pages. Googlebot should be able to access these pages to index the content.
I use Automatic Platform Optimization for Cloudflare. this is the pro version of Cloudflare, please chcek if you have any restrictions in robots.txt and .htaccess files and if there are non, please do a test without it?
Thank you!
