Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re facing issues updating the Meta title, Description, and Focus keywords in Rank Math. It seems like the data from Yoast SEO is still being acquired even after deactivating and deleting the plugin.
This issue could be due to a conflict with other plugins or JavaScript-related errors. To resolve this, you can first check for plugin conflicts by following the steps in our knowledgebase article on plugin conflict. If you’ve already done this and still couldn’t find any conflict, you can proceed to diagnose JavaScript-related errors by following the steps outlined in our guide on diagnosing JavaScript errors.
If you’re using the Gutenberg Block Editor, Classic Editor, Elementor, or Divi Builder, you can also refer to our detailed guides on how to enter SEO Meta Title, Description, and Focus Keyword for each of these editors:
If the issue persists after following these steps, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.
