Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with your website being marked as "noindex" by Google Search Console. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this problem:
-
Check Search Engine Visibility Settings:
- Go to your WordPress admin dashboard.
- Navigate to Settings → Reading.
- Ensure that the Search engine visibility option is unchecked. If it is checked, it will prevent search engines from indexing your site.
-
Review Individual Page Settings:
- Check the individual pages or posts in your WordPress editor to ensure that they do not have a "noindex" tag set in the Rank Math settings.
-
Inspect Plugins and Themes:
- Sometimes, plugins or themes can add a "noindex" tag unintentionally. Review any SEO-related plugins or settings in your theme that might be affecting indexing.
-
Validate Fix in Google Search Console:
- After making the necessary changes, go back to Google Search Console and use the Validate Fix option to inform Google about the changes.
- After making the necessary changes, go back to Google Search Console and use the Validate Fix option to inform Google about the changes.

Some of these pages seem to be set to index already.
Please clear your website caches and validate the fix on GSC.

Dear Jeremy
Thanks you for your reply.
Only one page is indexed. 85 pages are no index.I have check on the source code of the pages and here is what I have found :
<div class=”ab-sub-wrapper”>
<ul role=’menu’ id=’wp-admin-bar-rank-math-mark-me-default’ class=”ab-submenu”>
<li role=’group’ id=’wp-admin-bar-rank-math-pillar-content’ class=”mark-page-as”>
En tant que contenu essentiel<li role=’group’ id=’wp-admin-bar-rank-math-no-index’ class=”mark-page-as”>
Comme NoIndex<li role=’group’ id=’wp-admin-bar-rank-math-no-follow’ class=”mark-page-as”>
Comme NoFollowAs you can see there is several href=NOINDEX or No follow associated to rank math.
Can you please check and tell me what to do?Kind regards
AmandineHello,
It is a pretty common mistake to open the page source and search for a
noindex
tag to see if the page is marked as noindex or not.However, Rank Math offers a No Index option in the admin menu bar, which could show up in the page’s source code when logged in and the same code you shared above.
Please note that the actual noindex tag is added like this:
<meta robots="noindex">
In this case, you should check your Google Search Console > Indexing > Pages section to determine any issues reported on your URLs that may have prevented your site from being indexed:

Indexation autorized = No : noindex détecté dans la balise Meta robots
I have search on :
Rank Math global metadonnées : INDEX is ok
on all .php , nothing was found with the key word “index””no index””robots””meta”I have forced some pages As pillar content. No one was no index or no follow.
I really do not understand. but if you check on my data, you will see that the indexation failed.
Thanks again for your help,
Kind regards
AmandineHello,
do you have any idea of what is happening with the no index ?Kind regards
Hello,
Please resubmit a few URLs via the URL Inspection tool in Google Search Console and choose Validate Fix. This should prompt Google to recrawl and index those pages.
We look forward to helping you.
Thank you.
