# **🧭 Where Your Site Audit Lives**

All site audit data is accessed through the OTTO SEO section of Search Atlas. Start by navigating to **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → All Sites** and clicking your project card. This opens your project's audit dashboard, where you can review crawl results and flagged issues across the **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Overview (Website Overview)** and **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Page Explorer** screens.

# **🐛 How to Find Your Flagged Issues**

The **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Overview (Website Overview)** screen is your starting point for reviewing all issues detected during the most recent crawl. Issues are grouped by severity into three categories: **Errors**, **Warnings**, and **Notices**. Each category lists every issue type found, together with the number of affected pages.

# **✅ How to Access 'How to Fix' Details**

The **How to Fix** guidance is not visible at the category level — you must click into a specific issue to reveal it. Follow these steps:

1. Go to **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → All Sites** and open your project card.
2. Navigate to **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Overview (Website Overview)** to see the full issues list.
3. Expand the relevant severity category (**Errors**, **Warnings**, or **Notices**) if it is collapsed.
4. Click the specific issue name — for example, **Missing Meta Descriptions** or **Broken Internal Links** — not the category header.
5. A detail panel will open showing three sections: **About** (an explanation of the issue), **How to Fix** (step-by-step remediation instructions), and **Affected Pages** (every URL impacted).
6. Read the **How to Fix** section and work through the **Affected Pages** list to identify which URLs need to be updated.

# **📄 Investigating Issues by URL in Page Explorer**

If you prefer to see all issues on a specific page rather than all pages with a specific issue, use the Page Explorer. Navigate to **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Page Explorer**, search for or select the URL you want to inspect, and a full list of flagged issues for that page will appear. Clicking any issue in this view also surfaces its **How to Fix** guidance.

# **⚠️ Common Reasons 'How to Fix' Is Not Visible**

If the How to Fix section is not appearing, check the following:

- **You clicked a category header, not an individual issue.** Expand the category and click the specific issue name underneath it to open the detail panel.
- **The crawl is still running.** Issue details only fully populate after the crawl finishes. Check progress at **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Crawl Monitoring** and wait for the status to show as complete before reviewing results.
- **The issue shows zero affected pages.** If no pages are impacted, there are no fix details to display — your site passes that particular check.
- **A stale browser cache.** Perform a hard refresh with **Ctrl + Shift + R** (Windows) or **Cmd + Shift + R** (Mac), or open the platform in a private or incognito window.

# **🔄 Verifying Your Fixes After Making Changes**

Once you have applied the recommended fixes to your site, trigger a new crawl to confirm the issues are resolved. From **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Overview (Website Overview)**, click the **Re-crawl** button. After the crawl finishes, return to the same issue and confirm the affected page count has dropped. You can monitor crawl progress in real time at **Left sidebar → OTTO SEO → Site Audit → Crawl Monitoring**.
