SEO Titles & Meta

    Rank Math free

    I’m using the Rank Math SEO plugin together with Toolset to manage a custom post type called “Visa Travel Packages” (slug: visa-travel-package). While this post type correctly appears under Rank Math > Titles & Meta, it does not display the “Title Template” field like standard post types do.

    Here’s what I’ve already confirmed:

    show_ui, public, has_archive, publicly_queryable, show_in_rest → all are set to true

    supports manually extended via add_post_type_support() and $wp_post_types patch:
    includes ‘title’, ‘editor’, ‘excerpt’, ‘thumbnail’

    The post type is not hierarchical (I even forced hierarchical => false)

    Rank Math is running in Advanced Mode

    Plugin cache cleared, plugin reactivated, transients removed

    Despite all this, the “Single Visa Travel Package Title” section only allows a default per-post title, not a global title template using placeholders like %title% %sep% %sitename%.

    Expected behavior:
    The custom post type should show the global Title Template field, just like for “Posts” and non-hierarchical CPTs.

    Can you help me enable this?
    Is there an internal condition in Rank Math that prevents the Title Template field from rendering for certain post types?

    Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with the Rank Math SEO plugin and the custom post type "Visa Travel Packages." Thank you for providing detailed information about your setup and the steps you’ve already taken.

    It seems that you have covered most of the necessary configurations to enable the Title Template field for your custom post type. However, there might be specific conditions or settings within Rank Math that could affect the visibility of this feature for custom post types.

    Here are a few suggestions to troubleshoot this further:

    1. Check Custom Post Type Registration: Ensure that your custom post type is registered correctly and that it is not conflicting with any other plugins or themes. Sometimes, custom post types can have unique settings that may not be compatible with Rank Math.
    2. Review Rank Math Settings: Double-check the Rank Math settings under Rank Math > Titles & Meta to see if there are any specific configurations for custom post types that might be affecting the display of the Title Template field.
    3. Conflict Testing: Temporarily disable other plugins (except Rank Math) and switch to a default theme (like Twenty Twenty-One) to see if the Title Template field appears. This can help identify if there’s a conflict with another plugin or theme.
    4. Custom Code Review: If you have added any custom code to your theme or plugin that modifies post types or their capabilities, review that code to ensure it’s not inadvertently affecting Rank Math’s functionality.

    If after trying these steps the issue persists, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so that a human agent from the Rank Math Support team can assist you further. They will be able to investigate the issue in more detail and provide a solution.

    Thank you for raising this concern, and we appreciate your patience as we work to resolve it!

    Hello,

    This usually happens if you’re using a custom post type (not the default WordPress “Post”) without the editor support where our plugin can’t update the preview correctly.

    In this case, you may need to enable the preview and add Editor Support to the custom post type.

    Here’s a sample image where you can enable it if you’re using the CPT UI plugin

    Editor

    You may also verify that the correct title/description already applies to the front end by checking them using these tools:

    Let us know how this goes.
