  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with saving changes to your meta tags. Here are some common causes and solutions that might help you resolve this problem:

    1. Plugin Conflicts

    2. JavaScript-Related Errors

    JavaScript errors can also cause issues when saving metadata. You can diagnose these errors by checking the JavaScript Console in your browser. Here’s how to do it in Chrome:

    • Open Developer Tools by navigating to More ToolsDeveloper Tools from the Chrome menu or using the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + J (Windows) or Cmd + Option + J (Mac).

    3. Firewall Blocked Access to the File

    If you are using a firewall, it might be blocking access to necessary files. Check if Rank Math is being blocked and whitelist it if necessary. Look for blocked access to these files:

    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateSchemas
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateRedirection
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/getFeaturedImageId
    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/getHead

    You can use Wordfence in Learning Mode to whitelist these files.
