    This issue just caused recently. The authors (WordPress role) are not able to add, update or save their titles, meta description, and Focused keywords. Either the administrator has to update it or wordfence plugin is required to be disabled for that time. How can I make these plugin work simultaneously? Moreover, I have already Allowlisted updateMeta, updateSchemas, and updateRedirection URLs in wordfence.

    I got it, thank you. Is it safe to disable the WAF-Rule-233 in wordfence which is actually causing problem for non-admin users?

    Although disabling WAF-rule-233 did resolve the problem. But I felt its bit unsafe, so in WordFence tools option in WordPress, I have explicitly ‘Added Param to Firewall Allowlist” for enabling the author to edit and save changes in Rank Math SEO. Thank you so much for your help and time.
