    I’m having trouble with posts taking a fixed meta description & heading that is different from what we’ve set in the plugin.
    If we manually change the data for each page – it takes, but the standard data we set does not.
    It shows correctly on the WP dashboard while editing the post, but once published the meta data is totally different. Please advise. Thank you.

  • Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear about the issue you’re facing with the meta data not being set correctly in Rank Math for your posts. It seems like the standard data you’ve set in the plugin is not reflecting once the post is published.

    To ensure that the correct meta data is displayed for your posts, please follow these steps:

    1. Check What You Have Set Using Rank Math:

    2. Ensure Your Schema Settings Are Valid:

      • Make sure that your schema settings are valid as they can impact how Google displays your meta data.
    3. Check the Title/Description Set in the Page’s Source Code:

      • Verify that the correct title and description are set in the page’s source code.

    If after following these steps, the issue persists, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

    That is fine because it’s working ok for the archive pages. Just not on individual posts.

    Hello,

    Apologies for the inconvenience.

    Could you please share the affected URL so we can check as well?

    Hello,

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

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    We’ve checked your site and found that Rank Math REST Routes that we use to update the data are being blocked by a security firewall (SpamFireWall) and most likely this is why you’re facing the issue.

    We would request you get in touch with your hosting provider to make sure that REST APIs are not getting blocked. You can request that they whitelist the routes below:

    /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

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.
