    I upgraded https://www.garrettdigital.com to the latest version of RankMath today, and it seemed to break my entire website. When I went to the website front end, I see a critical error (screenshot: https://a.cl.ly/mXuB1gyE ) and the same when I try to access the WordPress backend. Luckily, I got an email from my host with troubleshooting details, so I was able to log in to recovery mode and disable Rankmath and now my site is working.

    Here are details from my hosting alert email:
    When seeking help with this issue, you may be asked for some of the following information:
    WordPress version 5.4
    Current theme: Panoramic Child Theme
    Current plugin: Rank Math SEO (version 1.0.42.3)
    PHP version 7.2.25-1+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1

  • Hello,

    It’s strange that you are getting the Error in the Rollbar package since we have removed that package in the last update. Please uninstall the plugin and install it again from wordpress.org. That should fix the issue.

    I hope that helps.

    Uninstalled and reinstalled the RankMath plugin. Things seem to be working now, but I’ll continue to test.
