Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.
For the robots.txt option in Rank Math to work, you have to delete the robot.txt in your website’s root folder.
Please login to your web server via FTP and delete the robots.txt file present in the root folder.
It is the same folder where you have your wp-content, wp-admin
etc.. folders.
Once you delete the robots.txt file, Rank Math’s virtual robots.txt file will take over and you will be able to edit the robots.txt file without issues.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
