Noindex archive

    Rank Math free

    Hello,

    I’ve a problem with the indexing of my archives.
    There is a “noindex” in the robots meta tag although I have correctly configured the archives with an Index and checked on the archive page that the Index is checked.
    In addition the option “like noindex” is checked in the Rank Math bar at the top. Clicking on it doesn’t make any modification on the page.

    Thank you in advance.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for the delay and for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    Assuming that you have already set Category Archives Robots Meta to index in Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Product categories and ensure that these settings are disabled.

    If they are already configured and still shown as noIndex, we might need to look closely at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
    Sensitive Data Section

    It is completely secure, and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

    You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

    I hope that helps. Thank you, and looking forward to your update.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    I found the problem !
    When there are no articles associated with a category, the category is automatically in noindex. So I created an article and associated it with my categories so that they are indexed.
    Thank you for your help. 🙂

    Hello,

    Yes, you must have enabled that option from WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Global.

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
