How to find out if Rank Math is causing problems?

    I am convinced that I have something that is causing problems with my site and Google is removing my pages. 2 years have passed, I even changed the structure of the permalinks, but in my opinion I won’t solve it even if I made it perfect.

    In my opinion, Rank Math creates problems: for example, I have a bug that you never solve: If I change a setting or click on it twice, I get the message “This page requires confirmation before you can exit. The information entered may not have been save.” I deactivated all plugins and changed the theme from 2024 to 2021. That is, from a full block theme to a normal one. Therefore, a problem with them can be categorically excluded through deactivation tests. There are other kinds of problems related with them, which I can’t test for.

    I am convinced that I have other problems, because even Search Console is unable to validate errors or increase the number of https pages and the Google community is unable to help. I don’t have any huge mistakes to reduce me to this situation.

    There may be plugins that are incompatible with you that you are not aware of or that you do not tell users not to use with your product.

  • Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear about the issues you are facing with your website and the challenges you are experiencing with Rank Math. It seems like you suspect that Rank Math might be causing problems on your site, such as the issue with the settings confirmation message and potential conflicts with other plugins.

    To determine if Rank Math is causing any problems on your site, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check for Plugin Conflicts: Sometimes, conflicts between plugins can lead to unexpected behavior on your site. You can perform a quick conflict check by disabling Rank Math temporarily and observing if the issues persist. If the issues disappear after deactivating Rank Math, it might indicate a conflict.

    2. Review Google Search Console: Check your Google Search Console account for any manual actions or errors reported by Google. This can help identify if there are specific issues affecting your site’s visibility in search results.

    3. Update Rank Math: Ensure that you are using the latest version of Rank Math as updates often include bug fixes and improvements that can address known issues.

    If after performing these steps you are still experiencing problems or need further assistance, please feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention, and we appreciate your patience as we work to resolve any issues you may be facing.

    Warm regards.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting support.

    To find out if something is wrong with our plugin or any other plugin you won’t need to debug much as you would see the error creeping into the WordPress installation.

    What you are reporting for the saved settings is not specific to Rank Math, it’s something that is browser-specific and it happens when the browser sees you reloading a page or exiting out of it with POST data not submitted.

    You have opened countless tickets about the performance of the plugin which were all answered with full detail on why that is happening and what our plugin is looking at to report certain errors but you insist that something is wrong with the plugin while ignoring the fact that you are in a very demanding niche and trying to compete with brands who spend millions just in advertising to get their mobile games to the first page of Google.

    To compete with those you would need to have similar levels of investment or find a very specific niche and build a community around that niche.

    An SEO plugin, be it Rank Math or any other on the market won’t be able to magically catapult your website for the first page and get thousands of visitors monthly if you continue to ignore the bigger picture.

    If you do have technical issues with the plugin we can continue to assist towards a well-functioning plugin but please make sure that your reports include reproducible steps or video/screenshot proof of how a particular function of the plugin is not working as intended.

    Thank you.

    it is unlikely that poor positioning is the problem. I certainly wouldn’t have opened thousands of tickets for this. But the exclusion of all URLs has been on Google for years. I would have many posts that would have the possibility of easily positioning themselves in the top 100 among URLs and images, due to lack of competition. But, my URLs are not there, as if I had any penalties.

    I followed all the possible guides even from Google, but beyond that I don’t know what goes wrong. The site is beautiful, useful, quite fast, a lot of text more than the competition. The problem is certainly not SEO…. But a technical problem to be discovered and that no one wants to investigate. So I don’t even know if it’s for example a conflict between plugins that creates the blocks. or if some protection blocks too much, even legitimate bots.

    Hello,

    As we stated previously the message “This page requires confirmation before you can exit” is a common browser-specific warning that indicates unsaved changes on the page.

    Google usually reports any issue that might prevent it from indexing your site in its Search Console.

    Use the URL Inspection Tool in Google Search Console to check individual URLs. This can provide specific insights into why certain URLs are not being indexed.

    Also, check Google Search Console for any manual actions that might have been applied to your site.

    If you still have doubts after this you may have to hire an SEO professional to perform a comprehensive site audit of your website.

    We hope this helps.

    Thanks.
