Instant Indexing Not Working

    Hi,

    I’m having problems with Instant Indexing as my site doesn’t seem to let RankMath automatically update the API key (checking leads to a 404 page). I asked my site support to add a .txt file to the root directory as per your instructions. This work but after I submit a post for indexing the API key regenerates automatically, so I am back to square one again. How can I fix this?

    Regards,
    Russell

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting the support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Please follow this guide and see if that helps:

    Also, please ensure that the server has the write permission for the plugin. You can confirm with the hosting about that.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you. The problem seems to have resolved itself after installing the Instant Indexing with Google plugin. Unable to verify if it works without this though. I can confirm that I did have the write permission for RankMath but clearly not for the .txt file which I had to ask my host to add for me.
