    Please tell me why I set up SEO for one post, saved all the settings, and then after some time I go back to edit it and look, but this single post itself lowered the SEO score and, accordingly, some settings disappeared. Why does this happen, please tell me.

    I did as you said, but it didn’t help, the SEO score also goes down and, accordingly, some settings disappear and I need to re-configure the post’s SEO, but it’s all reset again

    Hello,

    We’ve checked your site and found that Rank Math REST Routes that we use to update the data are being blocked by your Wordfence firewall and most likely this is why you’re facing the issue. Please check the screenshot in the sensitive data section for your reference.

    In order to resolve this issue, please try whitelisting the following Rank Math REST Routes that are being blocked on your firewall.

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

    You may try following this link to learn how you can whitelist Rank Math REST Routes in Wordfence Firewall: https://rankmath.com/kb/whitelist-rank-math-in-wordfence/

    Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.

    Again, I did as you said, but it didn’t help, the SEO score also drops and, accordingly, some settings disappear and I need to re-configure the SEO post, but everything is reset again

    Hello again,

    We have been able to log in to your website with the details provided in the sensitive data section.

    We still saw that the Rank Math REST Routes that we use to update the data are being blocked by your Wordfence firewall.

    We have gone ahead to whitelist this Rank Math REST Route that is being blocked on your firewall /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta following this procedure to whitelist Rank Math REST Routes in Wordfence Firewall: https://rankmath.com/kb/whitelist-rank-math-in-wordfence/ as shown in the sensitive area section

    The other rules shared by my colleague has already been whitelisted in your wordfence firewal except the /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta.

    You can go ahead to check this.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    when I’m in the WordPress admin area where all the single posts are, the SEO score appears to be good, as it should be, but as soon as I go to edit any post, then at the top right this SEO score goes down and I again need to manually adjust the Focus Keyword and the score goes up again. For some reason, “Focus Keyword” itself changes and because of this, the SEO assessment changes.

    Hello,

    We have been able to log in to correct the issue following this guideline: https://rankmath.com/kb/seo-score-not-available/

    Can you please confirm this?

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    Sorry, nothing works. Everything remains the same. Please look at my screenshots

    Hello,

    Please note that our plugin checks for the exact match of the focus keyword and as you’re using San Francisco travel as a focus keyword, the tests are not getting passed because the travel is missing on your meta title, description, and post content.

    However, we’ve tried to change the focus keyword and we can see it is saved properly and not getting the score low again. Please check the screencast in the sensitive data section for your reference.

    In case, you’re still facing the issue, please try to share a screencast with us by using a tool like https://loom.com so that we can check the issue further for you.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.
