Meta boxes in older sites

    Rank Math free

    After the install new pages have plugin button, so the title and description can be edited.

    But for older pages the option don’t show up in Gutenberg. There is no option in the drop down to show the plugin either.

    Please see the image:
    to the left – older page
    to the right – new page

  • Hello,

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

    Could you please confirm if those old pages were built using a different theme/builder?

    Also, assuming you are using the latest version of all the plugins and the themes (please update if not yet), it is also possible that there is a conflict with one of the plugins or the theme you are using.

    To determine that, please follow this troubleshooting guide:

    Here is a video you can follow as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcIWRhcUP2c

    Only the site admin would know and your users won’t be affected by this troubleshooting.

    If the issue persists, please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

    Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.

    No, old pages and new one have are created with the same thene (GeneratePress) and Gutenberg. No page buider is used.

    Activated all other plugins, result is stil the same.

    Hello,

    Thank you for that information.

    I’ve checked your site and replicated the issue with your contact page.

    Upon further investigating, it seems that there’s an error with the schema setup from that page that’s why the Rank Math option is not showing.

    Since there’s an error upon editing the page using the block editor (Gutenberg), I’ve installed the Classic editor so we can remove the corrupted schema (deactivated it after).

    And now you can edit your old page with Rank Math using Gutenberg editor.

    I hope that helps.

    Thank you, and please don’t hesitate to contact us anytime if you need further assistance with anything else.

    Thank you. It was before a site with YOAST. Could the import have been defective?

    The problem is that all the four pages I have, have the same issue. You fixed the Contact page, but the other have the same problem. Could you explain the procedure, so I can replicate it?

    I think I figured it out … thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for the update.

    We are glad that this issue is already resolved.

    I’ve installed and activated the Classic editor plugin and removed the schema being applied since they were corrupted.

    If you have any other concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us anytime by creating a new ticket to assist you further with anything else.

    Thank you.
