Hello,
I apologize for the issue you are facing with Rank Math inserting canonicals using HTTP instead of HTTPS. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
To fix this issue, you can manually set the correct canonical URL using Rank Math’s Advanced Meta Box. Here’s how you can do it:
- Go to the affected page in your WordPress dashboard.
- Scroll down to find the Rank Math meta box.
- Click on the “Advanced” tab in the Rank Math meta box.
- In the Canonical URL field, enter the correct HTTPS version of the URL (e.g., https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Create-new-redirection.png).
- Save your changes.
By setting the correct HTTPS version as the canonical URL, Rank Math will use that URL for indexing purposes.
If you encounter any difficulties or need further assistance, please feel free to reach out to our support team directly here. We are here to help!
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Best regards,
