    Hi there,

    since i’ve changed my SEO-Tool from Yoast to Rankmath, the Google Search Console notificated me that “missing a name or item.name property” on 47 elements on my Blog. The Problem even consists when the Plugin is deactivated.

    In addition, the number of visitors is almost non-existent after the migration.

    Looking forward hearing from you soon, thanks.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    The breadcrumbs on your site are loaded by the theme and not Rank Math as shown below:
    Breadcrumbs

    You will need to get in touch with your theme author so that their support team can help in fixing the schema errors. Alternatively, you can disable the theme breadcrumbs and switch to the use of Rank Math breadcrumbs.

    In regards to the other issue, could you please check for additional coverage errors on your search console dashboard?

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hi,

    thanks for your quick answer.

    When it’s caused by the theme, it’s an great coincidence. I will contact the theme support.

    Visitor numbers seem to be recovering from day to day. Is this normal for changing an seo tool?

    Best regards.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    Yes it is completely normal for fluctuations to happen, please check whether there are additional coverage errors on your search console dashboard which will then shed some light on this.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hi,

    it was caused by the incompatibilty of two other plugins: WP-Statistics and WP fastest Cache.

    It was a big coincidence that it occurred after Rank Math was activated.

    Thanks for your help.

    Best regards.
