    I have to use XAMPP and use a Localhost/operalogg1/wp-login.php and on my WP dashboard I read the following message: Seems like your site URL has changed since you connected to Rank Math. Click here to reconnect. But I cannot connect at all and nothing much is working on my side. This means that I can not use RankMath at all…

    Best wishes

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    Could you please add the following filter on your website and then reconnect to your account?

    /**
     * Filter whether we need to check for URL mismatch or not.
     */
    add_filter( 'rank_math/registration/do_url_check', '__return_false' );

    ​​​​​​​After that, the plugin should be able to stay connected without any issues.

    Here is a guide you can follow to add the filter:

    Let us know how it goes.

    We are here to assist you.

    Hello again,
    Well I now understand how to do it, but it is not possible to do. I cannot load the plugin because there is something wrong somewhere and I´m unable to fix this which I normally can fix…

    Best wishes

    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.
    Sensitive Data Section

    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:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/

    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):

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/

    We really look forward to helping you.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Sorry for the confusion from my colleague but since you are developing the website locally we cannot access it from our end so requesting the credentials, in this case, is not going to help.

    The filter that we shared previously can be added to the website by following one of these methods: https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/

    Having said that, the plugin will still work even if you don’t connect it to Rank Math as the connection is only necessary for validating the paid licenses and other features such as the Analytics module which is not relevant in a local development environment.

    Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.

    Hello,

    Since we did not hear back from you for 15 days, we are assuming that you found the solution. We are closing this support ticket.

    If you still need assistance or any other help, please feel free to open a new support ticket, and we will be more than happy to assist.

    Thank you.
