  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with saving the meta description and title. This can happen due to a few common reasons:

    1. Plugin Conflicts

    There may be conflicts with other plugins that prevent saving the SEO Title, Description, and Focus Keyword. You can troubleshoot this by following our guide on plugin conflicts.

    2. JavaScript-Related Errors

    JavaScript errors can also cause issues when saving metadata. You can check for these errors in your browser’s console. Here’s how to do it in Chrome:

    • Open Developer Tools by navigating to More Tools → Developer Tools or using the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + J (Windows) or Cmd + Option + J (Mac).
    • Click on the Console tab to see if there are any errors.

    Open Developer Tools
    Open console tab
    Google Chrome JavaScript console errors

    If you find any errors, they may indicate a conflict with a plugin or theme. You can reach out to the respective support forum with the error details for further assistance.

    3. Firewall Blocked Access to the File

    If you are using a firewall, it might be blocking access to Rank Math files necessary for saving metadata. Check if Rank Math is being blocked and whitelist it if necessary. The files to check include:

    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateSchemas
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateRedirection
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/getFeaturedImageId
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/getHead

    You can refer to your firewall documentation for instructions on whitelisting these files.

    If the issue persists after trying these steps, please reply to this ticket with the error details from your console, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!
