Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the data not saving after updating. It sounds frustrating, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
Since you’ve already tried uninstalling security and caching plugins and confirmed that there are no JavaScript errors, here are a few additional steps you can take:
-
Check if Rank Math REST Route is Blocked: Ensure that the REST route used by Rank Math is not blocked. You can do this by visiting the following URL in your browser (replace example.com
with your domain name):
`https://rankmath.com/kb/meta-data-not-saving/#firewall
If you see a response indicating access is denied, it may be due to your site’s firewall settings.

-
Plugin Conflicts: Even though you’ve uninstalled some plugins, there might still be conflicts with other active plugins or themes. You can refer to our guide on plugin conflicts to check for any remaining issues.
-
Firewall Settings: If you are using a firewall, ensure that Rank Math is whitelisted. Check if any of the following files are being blocked:
/wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta
/wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateSchemas
/wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateRedirection
/wp-json/rankmath/v1/getFeaturedImageId
/wp-json/rankmath/v1/getHead
You can find instructions on how to whitelist these files in our documentation.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so that a human agent from our support team can assist you further.
Thank you for your patience, and we look forward to helping you resolve this issue!
