    rank math is preventing categories from been index, despite enabling the index category option.
    I checked with all installed plugins, only when I activate rank math would google show ‘noindex’ detected in ‘X-Robots-Tag’ http header

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for the delay and for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    Could you please the affected URL to check?

    Please also make sure that the categories’ robots meta are already set in Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Categories:
    Categories noindex

    Note that this option is setting the default robots meta. If your categories were set to noindex before, you may need to edit them individually and select the index option inside.

    I hope that helps.

    Thank you, and looking forward to your update.

    Hello,

    Can you please check if you have set the individual category to noindex?

    If you have, the individual settings will overwrite the global settings.

    Please go to the category > SEO Settings > Advanced Tab > Check index checkbox > Save.
    index
    Then, clear website cache and try inspecting the URL.

    I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.

    I had all those options checked as “index”. Nevertheless, it’s done now, I changed my WEBSITE theme, and it worked. I guess there was interference with the current theme I was using.
