    Rank Math free

    I am currently getting the following error when trying to active Rank Math (current version of plugin, Version 1.0.42.1):

    Searching for similar errors in Google, it looks like this error has come up before a number of times and was historically solved by updating to new the newest version (e.g. https://support.rankmath.com/ticket/issue-with-the-activation-fatal-error/), but because we’re already using latest version (1.0.42.1) I’m not sure on best course of action.

    Any help would be greatly appreciate, thanks!!

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting the support and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Yes this issue should be resolved on the latest plugin version.

    Assuming you are using the latest version of all the plugins and the themes (please update if not yet), it would seem like a conflict with one of the plugins or the theme you are using.

    To determine that, please follow this troubleshooting guide:
    https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/

    Please let us know if you find the culprit.

    Only the site admin would know and your users won’t be affected by this troubleshooting.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thanks so much for the quick response Michael! I’ll definitely make sure to explore the plugin option Monday and get back to you if I find any conflicts or any resolution.

    Also, I highly doubt this is the issue, but thought it would be worth mentioning – I’m going to attempt removing the plugin and then performing a fresh install before activating as well. We installed the plugin at a later version (1.0.41.1) knowing we would be migrating to Rank Math soon, and successfully tested doing so at that version on a Staging environment. However, we just now finally made the decision to actually migrate on Production, and updated the plugin last night through the admin before attempting to migrate. So fingers crossed doing a fresh install and activation at same version immediately will work just like it did on previous version when we tested in our Staging environment.
