i set the title & meta, product categories is index, but the google search console show it’s noindex, there is a meta tag : Noindex, follow.
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Could you please check if you have some code on your theme that could be modifying the product categories robots meta?
Does the noindex option appear when you deactivate all other installed plugins and switch to one of the stock WP themes? Could you also share some links of the affected categories so that we can investigate this issue further?
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

<meta name=”robots” content=”noindex, follow” />
the above code is what i want to remove from my wordpress site.
the noindex code always appear when i deactivate the Yoast SEO and Rankmath.
but the noindex code will disappear when i activate the Yoast SEO.
i don’t know if the Yoast SEO add the Noindex code or not.
Now Rankmath is what i want to activate on my site, instead of Yoast SEO.
Although i set the product categories correctly with Rankmath title&meta, but it’s not worked.
here is the links, all product category links is noindex, just help me fix it.

Thank you so much!
I think i found the problem, but i am not sure which is the problem maker.
I can not check this page after the product category page from woocommerce was shut down.
i fond the Noindex meta tag was there when i enable the woocomerce plugin.
but under the circumstance, the Noindex meta tag will disappear when i switch to another wordpress theme.
Enfold or Woocommerce, just one of them.
thank you
the problem is done.
theme problem, now it’s index follow
Sorry, there is a new problem,
the code i add on my website turn all Noindex meta tag into index, follow.
some page should not be indexed, such as about us page, contact page and so on.
why the Rank Math can not set the title & meta to decide if the page is index or not.
Yoast SEO can do that, i activate the Yoast SEO, the product category is indexed.
The Noindex Meta tag on the product category page can not be remove when i switch Yoast SEO to Rankmath plugin.

Would you mind sharing a copy of the code that you are using to turn off the noindex on your theme so that we can advise further?
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
