Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with Google Search Console regarding breadcrumbs after installing Rank Math. To resolve this, you can disable the breadcrumbs feature in Rank Math if you prefer to use the built-in breadcrumbs from your Blocksy theme.
Here’s how to disable breadcrumbs in Rank Math:
- Go to your WordPress Dashboard.
- Navigate to Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Breadcrumbs.
- Disable the breadcrumbs function.
This should help eliminate any conflicts between Rank Math and your theme’s built-in breadcrumbs. If you continue to see issues in Google Search Console after making this change, please let us know, and we can assist further.
If you have any other questions or need additional help, feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will take over and assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!

Hi there I know about that setting but can’t change it.
Here is what it says
This option cannot be changed since your theme has added the support for Rank Math Breadcrumbs using:
add_theme_support( ‘rank-math-breadcrumbs’ );
Hello,
Please note that when you use a theme like Blocksy, the breadcrumbs are handled by the theme.
However, we can see the Breadcrumbs schema is showing Either "name" or "item.name" should be specified error. In this case, please try to follow the steps mentioned in this guide and see if that works for you: https://rankmath.com/kb/how-to-fix-either-name-or-item-name-should-be-specified-error/
Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.

Hello,
In this case, we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
Thanks, I’ve added that data. Can you tell me if there’s a way to automatically ping Google to index my new posts?
I’ve noticed that it takes weeks for Google to index my pages after publishing content. Is there an automatic way to ping Google through RankMath maybe? I know SEOPRess claim they can do it? Whenever I manually submit through GSC, it gets indexed, so not a quality of page issue, but Google doesn’t immediately pick up on my new content, even though I’ve submitted my RankMath sitemap. Any ideas?
Hello,
It seems like there was some issue with the Breadcrumbs settings. We’ve reset the Breadcrumbs settings and now it is working properly without any issues:
Regarding the indexing, we’ve instant indexing for Google, but we suggest using this only if you have job posting or live streams type website.
Since your website is not under these mentioned categories, you shouldn’t use that. If you’ve already submitted your sitemap on GSC, Google will automatically crawl and index your pages.
Please note that it is completely normal for newly published posts/pages to take time before they get crawled or indexed by Google. It depends on a lot of factors. Your posting frequency + the domain authority are just two of the many factors Google considers when indexing some new URLs.
Google assigns a crawl budget to your website depending on these factors (especially these two) and that has a direct effect on how soon or how late your content can get indexed.
Here’s a link for more information:

Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.
Thank you.
