Hello,
I apologize for the inconvenience you are facing with the Rank Math 404 Monitor picking up draft posts as 404 errors.
The issue you are experiencing might be due to the way Rank Math handles draft posts. When a post is set to draft status, it might still be indexed by search engines or have internal links pointing to it, causing the 404 Monitor to detect it as an error.
To resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:
- Ensure that the draft posts are not linked internally within your website.
- Check if the draft posts are indexed by search engines. If they are, you might need to request removal from search engine indexes.
- Consider publishing or deleting the draft posts if they are not intended to be live on your website.
If the issue persists or you need further assistance, please assign this ticket to a human agent using the available buttons so that we can investigate the problem further.
Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention.
