google search console error ”Missing field “mainEntity”

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with the "Missing field ‘mainEntity’" error in Google Search Console. This error often occurs when the FAQ Schema is not set up correctly. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue:

1. Ensure FAQ Schema is Added Properly: Make sure you have added the FAQ Schema using the FAQ by Rank Math block. You can do this by navigating to Posts → Add New in your WordPress dashboard, then using the + icon to find and add the FAQ by Rank Math block.
   

2. Check Visibility Settings: If you have hidden all FAQs, Google will not be able to detect any Schema for FAQs, leading to the missing mainEntity error. It’s better to turn off the visibility of FAQs that you don’t want to show rather than hiding all of them.

3. Test Your URL: After making these changes, test your post/page URL in the Google Rich Results Test to check if the FAQ Schema is valid and if the mainEntity error persists.
   

4. Check for Plugin Conflicts: Sometimes, conflicts with other Schema plugins can cause issues. Ensure that you are not using multiple plugins for generating Schema. You can check for any theme/plugin conflicts with Rank Math by following this guide.
   

If you follow these steps and still encounter issues, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!
