Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
1. The alternate page with the proper canonical tag error indicates Google has recognized this page as a duplicate of a canonical. There is nothing to worry about, it’s just a notice from Google as the main pages get indexed, and the google bot found the two URLs of the same canonical that’s the reason one page gets indexed and one page gets excluded.

2. Could you please let us know the affected page and where the page is being redirected according to Google Search Console?
3. Please also share the affected page where the error “Excluded by ‘noindex’ tag” occurred.
4. As for the 4xx issue, kindly refer to our guide here: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7440203?hl=en#:~:text=Submitted%20URL%20blocked%20due%20to%20other%204xx%20issue
Looking forward to helping you.

if i removed all this unwanted pages is it good for my website?
Is this casued by any plugin? cause never happened before i installed internal link plugin for internal linking but i just uninstalled it.
Hello,
We apologize for the delay in response.
Could you please let us know what AMP plugin you are using? It seems that the amp variation of the URL is been detected by Rank Math as a non-existing page and it redirects to the homepage.
As for the other pages with redirect warnings in GSC. Check if the destination of the redirection is indexed on the SERP. If they are, you can go ahead and remove those redirections.
The Crawled —currently not indexed report indicates that the content is eligible to appear in Google’s index, but Google is electing not to include it.
https://rankmath.com/kb/crawled-currently-not-indexed/
As for your 404 errors, please ensure that these URLs aren’t appearing as links across your website.
The Discovered – currently not indexed status means that Google knows about these URLs, but they haven’t crawled (and therefore indexed) them yet.
Here is what Google says about this status:
Discovered – currently not indexed: The page was found by Google, but not crawled yet. Typically, Google tried to crawl the URL but the site was overloaded; therefore Google had to reschedule the crawl. This is why the last crawl date is empty on the report.
Please note that it is completely up to Google if they want to index or not index your products. So, if you haven’t willingly or accidentally made your products noindex and Google still isn’t indexing your products – it means that either Google doesn’t want to index or hasn’t crawled your products yet because it hasn’t allocated that much crawl budget to your website.
Please check this website for more details.
Looking forward to helping you.

All redirection is indexed on the SERP yes they are some of them redirecting to home page and some has 404 errors whether they Discovered – currently not indexed, Excluded by ‘noindex’ tags
and some of them showing only feed.

Hello,
We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress login in the designated Sensitive Data section.
Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.
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:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/
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):
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/
We really look forward to helping you.
Hi,
How long this Ticket will last? cause I am using shared hosting without his consent I can’t share anything. Or how can I generate a new ticket and what should I write so it’s easy for you guys to understand the Main problem
Dont mind plz.
Regards!
Hello,
In this case, can you please confirm if you already followed this guide after you uninstall the AMP plugin? https://rankmath.com/kb/redirect-all-amp-pages-to-non-amp-pages/
After confirming that, you may clear your website cache and allow Google to crawl your website again.
As for the feed, you can add a rule in your robots.txt to force remove it from Google:
User-Agent: *
Disallow: */feed/
Hope that helps.
Hi
Create a Regex Redirection
https://ibb.co/BKmKM6V
is that right?
For the feed, add a rule in robots.txt to force remove it from Google:
My robots.txt is like that
User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
Sitemap:https://teensfood.com/sitemap_index.xml
should i write like this
User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
User-Agent: *
Disallow: */feed/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
Sitemap:https://teensfood.com/sitemap_index.xml
Hi
Plz do Answer so i can update my robots.txt
Thanks!
Hello,
In the regex redirect, please remove your domain in the Destination URL and only include this: /$1
For your robots.txt, you can remove the user agent as it is already included above. You can copy and paste this one instead:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Disallow: */feed/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
Sitemap: https://teensfood.com/sitemap_index.xml
I hope that helps.
Thank you.
Hello,
In the regex redirect, i did not add my domain in the Destination URL Rank math is doing that.
https://teensfood.com/$1
This is my Redirection settings
https://ibb.co/wCCp0G1
what to do?
Thanks!
Hello,
It looks like all/most of the issues have been addressed.
Please wait for Google Search Console to recrawl your website and update the reports accordingly. If there are URLs you want to be crawled faster, You can submit them manually with the GSC URL inspection tool: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9012289?hl=en
Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have questions.
Hello,
Create a Regex Redirection as you guided and remove feed from Google
User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Disallow: */feed/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
Sitemap: https://teensfood.com/sitemap_index.xml
but i have got error from google console,
Page indexing Blocked due to other 4xx issue
https://ibb.co/7C5Kz2Y
https://ibb.co/KNY2H1M
https://ibb.co/093f9Vf
what to do?
Regards!
Hello,
That URL(admin-ajax.php) is supposed to only be called from within WordPress, so when the Googlebot tries to access it as a user nothing is returned and there’s nothing to be indexed.
You can safely ignore this on Google Search Console if only this page is showing the error as that is not an issue.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
