I am using Yoast plugin in my WordPress website for SEO. If I uninstall it after implementing SEO, will its features be removed from my website? Features like title, meta descriptions etc. I want to uninstall to make my website faster to load.
Yes, those features wil be removed (or rather: not be present anymore): They are added dynamically by the plugin when a page is loaded. So if the plugin is gone, that won't happen anymore.
If your website is static, you could copy the relevant HTML meta tags for SEO from the header while the plugin is active, insert them in your code (i.e. in the header.php file) and then deactivate the plugin. But you'd have to do that for every page seperately (which works against the concept of having one header.php file for all pages). But all that is rather mere theory for a Wordpress site (I wouldn't bother trying that).
First be sure that it is the Yoast plugin that is making your website slow.
You can do this by deactivating all plugin then activating one by one until you find the plugin causing the problem.

Deactivating Yoast SEO would remove all optimization done on the site as they are all loaded dynamically on page load.

currently I'm running into this issue, where external links are automatically set to no-follow by WordPress. As of now I wasn't able to detect the source of this behaviour.
The page uses the Classic Editor (v1.6.2) Plugin - however, the problem still occurs without the use of this Plugin.
There are a bunch of other plugins installed but those are not directly involved with the post editin feature of WordPress. Are there any clues which might cause this issue?
If you need any information I can provide.
Which other Plugins are you using?
Are you maybe using RankMath or another SEO Plugin?
These have a setting to make all external links with "rel=nofollow". You would need to deactivate this or add an exceptions for specific domains.
Check the settings.
I tried to search google and follow do http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/step-by-step-guide-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin-for-beginners/. But My wordpress don't button add plugin.
Can you teach me how to fix it?
If you want plugins, you need to use WordPress.org, not WordPress.com.
From the link you provided:
If you are using WordPress.com, then you cannot install plugins.
In order to use plugins, you will need to use self-hosted WordPress.org (See the differences between self hosted WordPress.org vs WordPress.com).
Executive summary: WordPress.com is slightly easier to get started with but doesn't support plugins.
If you want to switch from WordPress.com to WordPress.org, then read our tutorial on how to properly move from WordPress.com to WordPress.org.
Click on 'Plugins', and then on the next page look at the very top to the right of the navigation menu. Do you see the button? The screenshot you provided does not cover that spot, and the navigation menu can sometimes bug up and not show submenu options.
As you got your answer but i want to clear more about it.
first of all you need to clear that with the help of www.wordpress.com you can create your blog but you can't do any extra customisation on your blog. but if you want to do this:-
You need to download your wordpress from www.wordpress.org org provides you full ability to use custom themes or use custom plugins or you can create your own plugin or theme.
hope it will help you and for more information you can visit this link

There are several WordPress tutorial videos available for free on this site. Which cover How to add plugin to wordpress?
How to add plugin to wordpress
The easiest way of installing a WordPress plugin is to use the plugin search. The only downside of this option is that a plugin must be in the WordPress plugin directory which is limited to only free plugins.
First thing you need to visit the Plugins » Add New page inside your WordPress admin area.
Find the plugin by typing the plugin name or the functionality you are looking for. After that, you will see a bunch of listings.
You can pick the plugin that is best, then click the ‘Install Now’ button next to it.
WordPress will now download and install the plugin for you. After this, you’ll notice the ‘Install Now’ button will change into the ‘Activate’ button. Then click on it. It will activate.

We use a lot of plugins and unfortunately can't remove more of them.
Our backend is slow.
Wordpress is built to load each plugin on every page load, also in the wp-admin backend. So even if you are on pages, where no plugin would be needed, woocommerce, contact form 7 etc. will be loaded. They put their CSS in the page but also do PHP stuff and slow everything down.
We know plugin organizer - a plugin that makes it possible to selectively load certain plugins on certain pages. They have a feature to do it on the backend - but it's a already a hell to work with it on the frontend. We use plugin logic in the frontend now.
Is there already a plugin or a hand crafted solution to select which plugins should be deactivated/activated on with wp-admin pages?
I guess it's needed to load every plugin on every wp-admin page to get the admin menu (the left side menu) - so I might be needed to built this menu and cache it somehow.
And then selectively activate plugins for certain pages.
We use custom fields - so ACF plugin has to be activated on some pages - also on some woocommercer pages. Polylang (for multilang) must be activated on a lot of pages.
But for example woocommerce doesn't need to be loaded on the event calendar pages and vis versa.
Do you know of existing solutions to lower the time needed to build the backend.
Are there any caching options?
You cannot activate/deactivate plugins individually for particular pages. Each plugin is either active or not when your site loads.
Here's something to try: In your staging environment, deactivate all of the plugins to see if that solves your problem with the slow admin menu. If it does, reactivate each plugin one by one until you find the problematic plugin. Then troubleshoot from there to determine the root of the issue.
You could also check your server's error logs to see if there are any warnings indicating issues with the site.
If that doesn't help, one final piece of advice I would offer is to contact your hosting company directly to inquire about any potential server issues that are slowing down your site's performance.
I have a question related to the WordPress<>Joomla compatibility. Recently I purchased a sophisticated plugin which runs on WordPress only. But my website with all the content and the design is based on Joomla. So I'm trying to figure out the means how I could use that WordPress plugin on the Joomla website. As I said before it's kind of advanced plugin with many options, so I guess it would be difficult to adapt the code to fit Joomla requirements. So I'm thinking about two possible solutions:
I could create a WordPress website with the same design that Joomla website has. However this solution requires to change all the Joomla template files, or to build the WordPress theme from scratch. Does anybody know any tutorial which explains how to migrate the template from Joomla to WordPress? I basically don't need to move the content, only the design. All the menu links and other stuff would redirect to the parent Joomla site.
The second solution I think would be to install the WordPress with that plugin on the server and then to create a copy of the Joomla site on the sub-domain. Then maybe I can use something like iframe on the Joomla site to show the WordPress plugin running. Is that kind of scenario possible? What kind of solution would you suggest? As I said before, I will keep my Joomla site anyway, because its already running with tons of data. I just need the functionality of one additional plugin, which sadly runs only on WordPress.
Thanks for the help.
Both scenarios are not practical - with the second being not feasible. What I recommend is that you adapt the WordPress plugin to Joomla or maybe search for a similar plugin that already exists on Joomla.
I tried to search everywhere for an answer to my question but I still doesn't understand how Wordpress fully work.
I would like to use Wordpress as my news system CMS only. This means, I do not wish to set up my page layout via the Wordpress theme interface. If you guys know another news CMS called CuteNews, I want my Wordpress to operate pretty much like CuteNews.
How can I put Wordpress post entries into my website that uses my own layout (and not using the theme interface in Wordpress).
Thanks!

I have used this as a starting point for my detached wordpress site and it's working perfect.
You can actually! Without converting it to a theme. It works for me as I don't do wordpress themes but I use WP to power the back-end of my websites. I utilize WP's CMS feature.
here's a checklist of what you can possibly do to your website.
Your website design (html/css)
Install Wordpress on your server, or locally.
Download Blank WP Template, set this as your default template for your wordpress site.
Edit the Theme's CSS/Header/Footer according to your website design while keeping essential WP codes provided in the template.
Set your News Page as the Blog Entry in WP Dashboard.
If you want some news preview, such as titles to appear somewhere on your site like homepage, you can either call it thru PHP code available on the net or install a plugin in WP.
Items listed above maybe broad, but that's a starting point, as you can research on the net for detailed information on how to go about your website with wordpress CMS.
Best of Luck!
