Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the plugin causing a 503 error on your website. This can happen due to several reasons, including conflicts with other plugins or themes, or server-related issues.
Before considering a switch to another SEO plugin, we recommend troubleshooting the problem. Here are a few steps you can take:
-
Check for Plugin Conflicts: Disable all other plugins except for Rank Math to see if the issue persists. If the error goes away, re-enable the plugins one by one to identify the conflicting plugin.
-
Theme Conflicts: Sometimes, the active theme may cause issues. You can switch to a default WordPress theme temporarily to check if that resolves the problem.
-
Server Resources: Ensure that your server meets the requirements for running Rank Math and has sufficient resources allocated.
-
Error Logs: Check your server’s error logs for any specific messages that could indicate what is causing the 503 error.
If you continue to experience issues after trying these steps, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.
Thank you for raising this concern, and we hope to help you resolve it soon!

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and we are sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
5xx errors are usually caused due to server misconfiguration or other server issues.
Can you please share the website error log with us? Having the error log file will give a clear idea of why this might be happening.
You can follow this guide to enable debugging in WordPress https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/ or you can get in touch with your web host, and they will help you locate the log file.

how to share the error log?
Hello,
Thank you for contacting us again. We’re sorry that you’re experiencing this issue with our plugin. We appreciate your cooperation and patience as we try to find a solution for you.
To be able to help troubleshoot this, we’ll need to see your debug log to understand what is causing the error on your website. The debug log is a file that records any errors or warnings that occur on your site. It can help us identify and fix the problem faster.
To share your debug log with us, please follow these steps carefully:
- Open your wp-config.php file. You can find it in the root folder of your site, usually in /public_html/ or /www/.
- Before the line that says /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */, add this code:
// Enable WP_DEBUG mode
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
// Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
// Disable display of errors and warnings
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );
@ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 );
This code will enable the debug mode and create a debug.log file in the /wp-content/ folder of your site.
- Go to your website and try to perform the action that caused the error again. This will trigger the error and generate the debug.log file.
- Go to the /wp-content/ folder of your site and look for the debug.log file. It should contain some information about the error that occurred.
- Send us a copy of the debug.log file. You can use a service like pastebin.com or wetransfer.com to upload it and share the link with us.
We hope these instructions are clear and easy to follow. If you have any difficulty or questions, please let us know. We’re here to help you.
Thank you for using Rank Math.
