    Dear Rank Math Support,

    I’m encountering a persistent issue where the meta title and description entered through the Snippet Editor save successfully the first time, but disappear or reset to default variables (e.g., %title% %sep% %sitename%) when I return to edit the post later.

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with the meta title and description not saving properly. This can happen due to a few common reasons:

    1. Plugin Conflicts

    There may be conflicts with other plugins that prevent Rank Math from saving your SEO Title, Description, and Focus Keyword. You can troubleshoot this by following our guide on checking for plugin conflicts.

    2. JavaScript-Related Errors

    JavaScript errors can also cause issues with 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 Tools → Developer Tools.
    • Click on the Console tab to see if there are any errors.

    Open Developer Tools
    Open console tab

    If you find any errors, you may need to address them or reach out to the respective support forums for those plugins or themes.

    3. Firewall Blocked Access to the File

    If you are using a firewall, it might be blocking access to certain files that Rank Math needs to save your metadata. Ensure that Rank Math is whitelisted in your firewall settings. Check 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 refer to Wordfence’s Learning Mode for instructions on whitelisting.
