Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
If the global noindex tags + categories option was enabled after the categories had been created then you will need to edit each of the categories and resave for the noindex option to take effect on your pages.
Alternatively, if these are too many to edit you can also change all the robots meta for the categories page by using the following filter with some custom code:
/**
* Allows filtering of the robots meta data.
*
* @param array $robots The meta robots directives.
*/
add_filter( 'rank_math/frontend/robots', function( $robots ) {
//add some logic here to target category and tag pages
return $robots;
});
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
