Hello,

Please share the URL where the incoming link is still not updating.

Also, please share the URLs of your posts/pages where that link is mentioned so we can check as well.

Looking forward to helping you.

Hello,

Can you please confirm if you just recently installed Rank Math? If so then, sorry the only way to address this is to open each post and manually save them to update the internal links.

If Rank Math is new to your website, Rank Math hasn’t indexed all the internal link information to your website’s database.

Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any other questions.
