    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math.

    You can easily add/update the meta and title description to your content by following this tutorial -> https://rankmath.com/kb/seo-meta-tags/

    I hope that helps, and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    Thank you

    Yes, the issue is that I’ve done that – yet when I then go to the SEO Analysis tool from Rankmath, it still shows that my meta description is the old one (not the updated one).

    Is the SEO Analysis tool from Rankmath looking at another meta description that I have not updated?

    My website is BestStockStrategy.com

    If so, please let me know where I can update the other meta description where the SEO Analysis is indicating that I am still using the old meta description.

    Thank you.

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today and sorry for the delay and any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    In the unlikely event that you run into a situation where your SEO Title, Description, and/or Focus Keyword aren’t being saved when you update a post or page – here are some of the most common causes:

    1 Plugin Conflicts
    There can be plugin conflicts due to which you might not be able to save the SEO Title, Description, Focus Keyword. You can solve these plugin conflicts by going through our Knowledge Base on Plugin Conflict.

    2 Firewall
    If you are using a Firewall there are chances that it will prevent saving the data.

    3 JavaScript-related Errors
    If you are experiencing issues while saving your SEO Title, Description, or Focus keyword then it could be due to JavaScript-related errors. You can diagnose the JavaScript-related errors from the JavaScript Console.

    4 Blocked Access to the file
    If you see blocked access to this file: /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta?_locale=user – then you can whitelist the file using or use WordFence in Learning Mode. These instructions are for WordFence but will likely work on any firewall plugin/software.

    How to Ensure Rank Math Meta Data Can Be Updated?
    You have to ensure that the file is whitelisted and access to it isn’t blocked using a plugin like WordFence. You can install WordFence as well and see if you can replicate the issue. If you aren’t sure, then you can ask the web host why that file is showing a 403.

    To whitelist a file in WordFence, navigate to WordFence > Tools in your WordPress admin area. Click on Whitelist Param from Firewall.

    I hope that helps, and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    Thank you

    This doesn’t answer my question at all.

    I never said that it wasn’t being saved.

    Hello,

    Thanks for contacting us and we regret the inconvenience caused.

    The SEO Analysis shows the meta description of your homepage. Could you confirm if you’ve updated the meta description for the homepage and still it is not showing in the SEO Analysis?

    If yes, then please head over to your WordPress admin area > Rank Math > Status & Tools > Database tools > Flush SEO analysis data and Remove Rank Math Transients, then perform SEO analysis again and see if the issue is fixed.

    Remove transients

    Also, I checked the source of your website and I found that there are duplicate meta og tags. Please see this screenshot for a quick reference: https://i.rankmath.com/kmCbl0

    Duplicate og tags might confuse the social media platforms about which tags to honor. Please follow this troubleshooting guide to determine which plugin or theme is causing this issue: https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/

    Once you find the plugin/theme inserting the duplicate tags, you can disable its og tags and other SEO-related features to fix this issue.

    Looking forward to your update on this.

    Thank you.

    Hi. Which Meta OG tags are duplicate?

    Hello,

    Thanks for your reply.

    All the tags in the screenshot that I shared in my previous reply are duplicated tags. If you’ll scroll a bit in the page’s source, you’ll see the same tags generated by Rank Math in the Rank Math’s meta section.

    Here’s a screencast for the issue: https://i.rankmath.com/dSZsiJ

    You can follow the troubleshooting guide that I shared previously, and disable plugins one by one by checking the homepage’s source.

    Hope this helps in solving the issue.

    Thank you.
