Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Getting the sitelinks is an automatic process. Basically, you just have to have enough authority and backlinks for Google to deem your website worthy of those sitelinks.
Here’s Google take on it:

As you said that your website had sitelinks in the past, your site might have lost the sitelinks due to some algorithm update from Google.
You need to work on improving the authority of your website.
Here is a guide on getting sitelinks:

Hello
Thank you for the reply. This wasn’t really what I was after but thank you anyway. I was mainly asking, whether you would be able to spot some obvious error that I have done with RankMath plugin so that Google search is only showing one sitelink, when there used to (and should) be many of them. I have noticed that on Google Search Console the Sitelinks Searchbox amount has recently dropped from more than 40 to 3, so I am wondering could this be a factor? If I will provide you login details, could you quickly check the website out?
Another question would be related to Schemas. We have an accommodation business with restaurant and some guided activities. Which schemas should I use for our accommodation products and activities and what should I write to the “Price” field when we have multiple prices for different kind of accommodations and activities available?
Hello,
Thank you for keeping in touch with us.
As explained by my colleague, the Sitelink is not something you can control over Rank Math settings. Rank Math will automatically add the sitelink markups on your site by default and it’s up to the search engine whether you are eligible for sitelinks. The reason you are having sitelinks drops is that you were hit by an algorithm update. I’ve checked your site and Sitelinks searchbox schema is available on your homepage.
Please give this a few weeks and check if there is any change.

I can only suggest the Product schema or the Service schema as this offers the basic properties to describe your service.
If you are using woocommerce to list your product/services, the Woocommerce Product schema is the recommended markup for you as this can handle multiple prices.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Thank you for the reply. As I don’t have Woocommerce in use, should I keep the price fields blank?
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Leaving the price field empty will only trigger an error on your Google-rich results and search console as well.
As for your case here if you do not have the Woocommerce in place you can use the Product schema that comes with Rank Math.
In case you do not want this Price field within the schema you can have it removed as well rather than having it balnk.
We really look forward to helping you.
Thank you.
Thanks, the final question would be: how can I remove the price field from the product schema? And of course: are you planning on adding a specific schema for accommodations in the future?
Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.
You can use the following code to remove the price from the schema:
/**
* @param array $entity Snippet Data
* @return array
*/
add_filter( "rank_math/snippet/rich_snippet_product_entity", function( $entity ) {
unset($entity['offers']['price']);
return $entity;
});
We have plans of implementing many other schemas in the future. We will notify you if we implement any schema specific to accommodations. However, for now, you might find the service schema useful. Please refer to this tutorial guide for more details: https://rankmath.com/kb/service-schema/
Hope this helps.
Thank you.
