    Rank Math free

    I download Rank Math and under Plugins WP says it is active. I thought I would be able to run the Setup Wizard from the plugins page, but the only choice I am given is to deactivate Rank Math – no Setup Wizard.

    Hello,

    I apologize for the issue you are facing with activating Rank Math and running the Setup Wizard. It sounds like you might have missed the initial setup process after activation.

    To access the Setup Wizard, you can try the following methods:

    1. From the Rank Math Dashboard: Navigate to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Dashboard and look for the Setup Wizard tab. You should be able to initiate it from there.

    2. From the Plugins Page: If you accidentally skipped the Setup Wizard, you can rerun it from the plugins page by going to WordPress Dashboard → Plugins → Installed Plugins. Look for Rank Math SEO in the list and see if there’s an option to run the Setup Wizard.

    If these options do not work, please reply to this ticket with your site URL, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!

    This is normal behavior. Once Rank Math is activated, the Setup Wizard doesn’t run from the Plugins page.

    To launch it:

    Go to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math → Dashboard

    Click Setup Wizard (top or sidebar)

    If you don’t see it:

    Make sure you’re logged in as an Administrator

    Clear cache / refresh the dashboard

    Try Rank Math → Status & Tools → Reset Plugin (this re-enables the wizard)

    That should let you start the setup.
