Hello,
I apologize for the issue you are facing with the page redirect and the additional URL from the Table of Contents (TOC). This can happen if there are redirects configured incorrectly or if the TOC is generating links that conflict with your post URLs.
To address this issue, you can follow these steps:
- Check Redirects: Ensure that there are no conflicting redirects set up in Rank Math that might be causing the issue. You can do this by going to the Redirections section in Rank Math and reviewing any existing rules.
- Review TOC Settings: Make sure that the TOC settings in Rank Math are configured correctly. Sometimes, adjusting the settings can resolve issues with how links are generated.
- Use the Redirection Debugger: If you’re still having trouble, you can use the Redirection Debugger in Rank Math to diagnose the issue further. This tool can help identify any loops or conflicts.
If you find that the built-in TOC is not meeting your needs, you may consider using a third-party TOC plugin, but it’s not necessary unless you prefer its features.
For more detailed guidance on solving redirection issues, you can refer to this article: Solving Redirection Issues Using Rank Math.

Hello,
Please note that Rank Math ToC doesn’t generate any additional URLs on your website. It only includes the ID with (#) so that the browser can detect that.
In this case, you can use the URL inspection tool of your GSC account to check the URLs and view the referring page to make sure from where they are coming from.
Once done, you can follow the steps mentioned in this guide to fix the issue: https://rankmath.com/kb/page-with-redirect/
Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
