Deactivate METAS

Hello,

I’m sorry to hear about the issue you’re facing with managing meta tags using Rank Math. It seems like Rank Math is taking control over the meta tags for product categories, even though another plugin is managing them.

To resolve this, you can disable all the SEO tags generated by Rank Math by following these steps:

1. Navigate to WordPress Dashboard → Appearance → Theme File Editor.
2. Add the following code snippet to your theme’s functions.php or rank-math.php file:

/**
 * Function to disable SEO Tags generated by Rank Math
 */
function rankmath_disable_features() {
    if ( is_singular( 'page' ) ) {
        remove_all_actions( 'rank_math/head' );
    }
}
add_action( 'wp_head', 'rankmath_disable_features', 1 );

3. Click the Update File button to save the changes.

This code will remove the SEO tags generated by Rank Math on all pages, including product category pages.

If you encounter any difficulties or need further assistance, please feel free to reply here, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you promptly.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Hello,

Apologies for the inconvenience.

The filter shared by our bot only applies to single pages on your site, that’s why your product categories still contain Rank Math meta tags.

Please replace the code to this one instead to apply it to your product categories

/**
 * Function to disable SEO Tags generated by Rank Math
 */
function rankmath_disable_features() {
    if ( is_product_category()) {
        remove_all_actions( 'rank_math/head' );
    }
}
add_action( 'wp_head', 'rankmath_disable_features', 1 );

Hope that helps.
