Plugin conflict with rank math

    Rank Math free

    Hi there,

    I need your help please.

    Please CC in my developer when replying a********@g********

    The site, https://letstraveltomexico.com/ has some images from the Amazon Affiliates site links embedded. When embedding new images, they’re not displaying correctly. After about 20 seconds to a minute, a 2nd image appears as an error. Normally the 2nd image in Amazons coding is hidden, but Rankmath is causing it to load incorrectly.

    During testing, the image starts loading correctly without any errors when Rankmath is disabled.
    Whilst Rankmath is enabled, the error occurs.

    Tests have been carried out with all plugins disabled, and the WordPress default Twenty Twenty-two theme enabled. Server-side cache and Cloudways bot security have also been disabled. There is another WP site hosted on the same server that isn’t having this issue.

    Rankmath has been rolled back to older versions and reinstalled. The database transients have been cleared out as well as rebuilding any missing tables.

    This is with Rank Math enabled:

    https://ibb.co/412219F

    This is with Rankmath disabled

    Also on this post is another example of the error https://letstraveltomexico.com/packing-list-for-mexico/

    https://ibb.co/Tt39yB5

    Sometimes, it’s only on one image like this:

    Here’s this system information, this is with everything disabled. Here below at the bottom you can find a copy of the system info with the normal site plugins and theme enabled.

    There are some 500 timeout server errors in the dev console, but these also happen on a 2nd site (https://www.boundlessroads.com) which runs Rankmath and it doesn't have the image erroring issue.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Unfortunately, we can’t CC other email addresses in this forum.

    We might need to take a closer look at the settings. If you prefer, you can create a staging website for us so we can further troubleshoot the issue without worrying about breaking your live website. 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.
    Sensitive Data Section

    It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/

    You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/

    We really look forward to helping you.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    We tried to replicate the issue on the website but even with Rank Math enabled we were not able to see any issues with the images not being loaded.
    Images

    Also, the screenshot you shared initially it’s no longer accurate since the page you mentioned doesn’t include mentions of any books.

    Please let us know of any other steps to reproduce the issue so we can advise further.

    Looking forward to hearing back from you.

    Hello,
    the issue was not that the image didn’t appear but that the code was showing.
    Can you please check also this post
    https://letstraveltomexico.com/packing-list-for-mexico/

    see screenshot attached here
    https://ibb.co/NKXQrd4

    in order to see it you need to wait a few minutes and the code will appear.

    Hello,

    I have conducted further troubleshooting and it seems the image is still broken even with Rank Math deactivated. Please refer to my video screencast in the Sensitive Data section.

    As for the “code” you are seeing on the front end. That is actually the alt text generated by Rank Math. If you go to the Image SEO settings under Rank Math > General Settings > Images, the “Add missing ALT attributes” option is configured to generate the filename of the image and currently, the image path generated is invalid hence, it generates an unexpected alt text. Alt text tends to display on the front end as a fallback if the image is broken.

    Please refer to my screenshots below:

    image
    alt

    Hope this helps you with your situation.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Hello!

    No, it doesn’t really help.

    So what is the solution to this problem? I need to use Amazon code for displaying their images.

    Thanks for clarifying

    Hello,

    On your website, you have removed the setting that generates ALT tags for images in our Image SEO module and we can no longer see the issue happening on the page.

    Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Yes, my developer disabled that and the issue was resolved thanks a lot

    Hello,

    We are super happy that this resolved your issue.

    If you have another question in the future, please feel free to create a new forum topic, and it will be our pleasure to assist you again.

    Thank you.
