Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that you are facing issues with the Rank Math Metabox not being visible on your post/pages. To troubleshoot this, please follow these steps:
-
Select the Post Type/Taxonomy: Make sure you have selected the correct post type or taxonomy where you want to add the missing Meta Box. You can do this in the Titles & Meta settings by choosing the relevant post type/taxonomy.
-
Enable Add SEO Controls: Scroll down in the settings and ensure that the "Add SEO Controls" option is enabled for the specific post type/taxonomy.
If you are using the Block Editor, you should see the Rank Math SEO icon at the top-right corner. Clicking on this icon should reveal Rank Math’s SEO Meta Box. In case you are using the Classic Editor, scroll down to find the Meta Box. If it’s still not visible, click on "Screen Options" at the top-right of your screen and check the "Rank Math SEO" checkbox.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.
Thank you for reaching out!

Hello,
Thank you for contacting support.
Upon checking an example post we could find the metabox as expected in the sidebar of the Gutenberg editor:
If this happens on a particular page please let us know exactly which one so we can check.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Miguel.
Yes, I discovered that same thing last night after reading the first virtual response on the ticket.
But I asked for human attention because I had the metadata at the bottom of the editor and it is much friendlier and easier to use.
Now, in response to your response, I ask if there was a software update that removed the metabox from the footer and applied it to the sidebar. If that were the case, there is no mistake and I was confused.
But if it were possible to set the meta on the foot or underneath I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks for your help, regards, Ricardo
