    Hi!
    When trying to run the setup wizard, I get an error message saying, “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”.

    I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the same thing happens and I never get the option to actually log in to the plugin. could you help me please to fix this issue?
    Thank you

    Hello,

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

    We are currently investigating the cause of this problem. It only seems to affect a number of sites. Could you please launch the setup wizard from the installed plugins page and let me know if the problem is still experienced?

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hi Dario!
    As Michael said, you can launch the setup wizard from the installed plugins page and normally you will not have issues, it’s worked for me.
    Hope it will help you

    Hello @sempreinpesca and @robinhollin

    We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please open a new ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
    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.

    Hi Dario,

    Thanks for the follow up.

    I have been able to login but I could not reproduce the error on the dashboard. The issue could be stemming from the browser that you are currently using.
    Please let me know how this goes on the new thread.

    Thank you.
