Content SEO tab not updating with Section and Entry Type changes

[stevehurst]

Describe the bug

After making local Section and Entry Type changes and pushing to production, my Content SEO tab's Sections don't match updates made to Section names and handles, and new Entry Types assigned to Sections aren't showing up under the Section's Content SEO settings as an Entry Type dropdown.

To reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Update Section and Entry Type settings locally
2. Commit changes, including project config updates
3. Push to production
4. Run Craft command line series on production to update to commited changes:

php craft update/composer-install
php craft migrate/all
php craft project-config/apply
php craft clear-caches/all

6. Check Content SEO on production, no changes
7. Pull down DB and restore to local
8. Make changes to Sections and Entry Types
9. Check Content SEO locally, no changes

Expected behaviour

I expect Content SEO to match my Section and Entry Type configurations.

Versions

• Plugin version: SEOmatic 5.1.11
• Craft version: Craft Team 5.6.8

Adding new Sections and deleting them seems to work and update Content SEO. But editing any existing Sections does not.

Same issue for me with:

Plugin version: SEOmatic 5.1.11
Craft version: Craft Pro 5.6.4

@stevehurst I did find a hack to solve this. If you browse to the old section under "Content SEO" and change the appropriate URL slug to the new section name, it will pull up and you can save it. Upon save, the old disappears and the new one exists.

For example, on this url, I changed the resourcesIndex slug to the new section name: https://yoursite.com/admin/seomatic/edit-content/general/section/resourcesIndex/default

@astuteo great hack, that worked on my end for the section that was completely changed and was the big issue. The Section Name is still not updating on some of my other sections that had simple name changes.

Thanks!
