    Hi

    I’ve been dealing with this for months now, all of my pages, including the WooCommerce products are not being indexed by Google because there is a “noindex” tag in the HTTP headers in “X-Robots-Tag”, it looks like it is RankMath the plugin adding this and I understand this is because We don’t want the sitemap to be indexed by Google but it happens that this tag is de-indexing my whole site.

    Is there a way to delete it? I’ve tried searching on RankMath’s forum, WordPress’ forums, even Other plugin’s forums and it’s been impossible.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    The access requires a 2FA verification

    Could you please disable Rank math temporarily and test one of your product URLs here: https://websniffer.cc/ to confirm if the X-RObots tag headers are really coming from Rank math

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hi Michael

    Thanks for the quick response. How much should I wait before testing it on websniffer? The cache could affect the results if I test it immediately?

    I also temporarily disabled the 2-auth so You should be able to log-in now.

    Hello,

    I have checked the pages (with Rank Math enabled) but I see them in the source code set as index. Could you let us know some example pages were you still see them as no-index?

    Looking forward to help you.

    Hi

    Every single page is NoIndex as You can see in the page You sent previously https://websniffer.cc/ because the X-Robots-Tag is adding a NoIndex Tag to the HTTP Headers. In the Robots.txt everything is Index but what Google Search Console is saying is that they can’t index any page on the site because of the tag in the X-Robots-Tag, You can confirm that by searching on Google site:mysite.com

    Thanks for your time.

    Hello,

    Thank you for the follow up.

    I checked your site and the X-Robots tag is not added by Rank math. To confirm this, I deactivated Rank math temporarily and cleared all cache on your site then tested as suggested on: https://websniffer.cc/, I have attached a screencast in the sensitive section.

    It is likely added by your hosting server, please check in with them to check this and let us know if our input is required.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
