Hello,
Thanks for contacting us, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Can you please search and forward a receipt from FastSpring.com so we can locate your account and verify it?
Since you’re currently using the Rank Math PRO plugin, but the account you have used to open this ticket is the Rank Math free version.
Also, we’ll need a few affected URLs to investigate the issue further.
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Thank you.
The issue was only with the homepage, and I was using the free version of RankMath. However, I added the pro version because I saw in RankMath’s documentation that we can add or remove the noindex setting quickly using it. This option was not available in the free version, so I upgraded to the pro version to access it. When I used the option to remove the noindex, it worked fine. But as soon as I refreshed the page, the noindex condition was back again. I only want to know why the noindex is appearing and where it’s coming from, considering that the page is indexed, and this behavior is only happening with the homepage.
I provided you with a screenshot in the previous message regarding the issue related to “noindex” tag, and this problem only exists for the homepage and not for other pages. Even though the homepage is indexed, the “noindex” tag is showing up in the SEO details. I have provided you with temporary access so that you can verify this issue yourself. Also, this issue is only present in the homepage of both languages.
Hello,
Rank Math shows No Index in the SEO details section when a post is excluded from the Sitemap. I see you have added the Homepage ID (3868) in the Exclude Posts fields in the Sitemap settings. Is there any reason for excluding the Homepage in the Sitemap? Removing this ID from the Exclude Post settings, will fix this issue.
I hope that helps.
