Hello;
As a result of a deleted post, it automatically says “SEO Notification: A previously published post has been moved to the trash. You can redirect to https://www.site.com/sample topic/New URL.” A warning message appears. Previously, when this article appeared, “You can redirect to the new URL.” When I clicked, the redirect window would appear and I would redirect. If I click now, the address “https://www.site.com/wp-admin/post” is shown and I get a 404 error. When you click it, it should actually open the redirect window. Thank you

Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the automatic SEO redirect for deleted posts. It seems that the functionality to redirect to a new URL is not working as expected, and instead, it is leading to a 404 error.
To address this, you can manually set up a 301 redirect for the deleted post. Here’s how you can do it:
-
Go to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Redirections.
-
In the Redirections section, enter the old URL (the one that was deleted) in the Source URL field.
-
Enter the new URL where you want to redirect the traffic in the Destination URL field.
-
Select 301 Permanent Move as the redirection type.
-
Click on the Add Redirection button to save your changes.
If you have multiple URLs to redirect, you can also set them up in bulk. You can learn more about how to set up bulk 301 redirects in WordPress.
If the automatic redirect feature is still not functioning properly, we recommend replying to this ticket so that a human agent from the Rank Math Support team can assist you further. Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention!
Hello,
We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

We really look forward to helping you.
Hello,
The translation of the plugin on the WordPress repository is setup incorrectly as you can see here:
The person who translated this and the person who approved missed the fact that they switched the parameters in the translation so this will always output incorrectly in the Turkish language.
Given that the translations in our plugin are community-driven, only when the translation is updated in the WordPress translation website, will it also be updated in the plugin: https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/seo-by-rank-math/stable/tr/default/
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
