  • Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear that you’re facing issues updating the permalink of your post. To update the permalink using Rank Math’s Snippet Editor, please follow these steps:

    1. Click on the Rank Math SEO icon in the top-right corner of the page or scroll down to find the Rank Math Meta Box if you’re using the Classic Editor.

      Open Rank Math Metabox from WordPress Block Editor

    2. Choose Edit Snippet under the General tab to open the Snippet Editor.

      Choose Edit Snippet in Rank Math Metabox

    3. In the Snippet Editor, you can change the permalink under the Permalink field. Ensure it’s below 75 characters.

    4. Once you’ve edited the permalink, click Update or Publish the post.

    If you’re still facing issues after following these steps, please update the post and try again. If the problem persists, feel free to reply here, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.

    Thanks for the reply,
    I did all of these steps and it still won’t update when I preview the site.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your patience.

    Your site is not live yet. Please share the screenshot of the permalink section in the edit snippet and the exact URL you are trying to achieve so we can check.

    Please share the current URL and the new permalink you want to use.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Hi,

    This is the current permalink: ื”ืงืคืืช-ื‘ื™ืฆื™ื•ืช-ื—ืœืง-1-ื”ื’ื™ืœื•ื™-ืกื•ืฃ-ืขื™ื“ืŸ-ื”ืชืžื™ืž
    and this is how it should be: ื”ืงืคืืช-ื‘ื™ืฆื™ื•ืช-ื—ืœืง-1-ื”ื’ื™ืœื•ื™-ืกื•ืฃ-ืขื™ื“ืŸ-ื”ืชืžื™ืžื•ืช

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Thank you for sharing the URLs. We tried saving the permalink you shared on my test website, and when we saved it changed to the current permalink and not what it is supposed to be.

    We have shared this with our development team for further investigation. We’ll get back to you as soon as we have feedback regarding the issue.

    Meanwhile, do not hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions.

    Hello,

    We heard back from our dev team and it seems that the same result is happening if you are using WordPress’s native permalink field. We tested even with Rank Math disabled so this issue doesn’t seem to be Rank Math-related. Can you please confirm from your end?

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thanks,
    It’s happening with WordPressโ€™s native permalink field for me too.

    Hello,

    In that case, this isn’t a Rank Math-specific issue as Rank Math is using the same functionality from WordPress to change the permalink or URL.

    You may contact the support folks from WordPress instead to get this checked further.

    Donโ€™t hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any other questions.

    Hello,

    Since we did not hear back from you for 15 days, we are assuming that you found the solution. We are closing this support ticket.

    If you still need assistance or any other help, please feel free to open a new support ticket, and we will be more than happy to assist.

    Thank you.
