    Is there an easy way to disable the author credit from WordPress posts using RankMath?
    I am disabling the author archive using RM and getting an error from AHRefs crawlers as a result.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention.

    Could you confirm if you wanted to remove the Author’s name in your posts like this?
    Author name

    If so, the Author name is an important type of metadata added to your WordPress posts by default. It allows your readers to learn about authors who create content on your blog. However, if you still wanted to remove it, you can coordinate with your theme developer for disabling/hiding them on all of your posts.

    Disabling the Author archives in Rank Math would just disable the page for your Author archives. You can check this link for more information:

    I hope that helps. Thank you, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance.

    Thanks for your reply.
    Yes, that’s the credit I want to remove. I am the only contributor to the blog, and, with the Author archive turned off, AHRefs flags a “Page Has Links to Redirect” issue.
    Just wondered if there was a way around this.

    Hello,

    To remove author from posts please navigate to WP Dashboard > Appearance > Customize > Blog > Remove author

    These settings usually depend on your theme configuration, you can contact your theme provider for more info.

    I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.
