Rank Math SEO plugin causing Server Error 500

Hello,

Thank you for contacting us again. We’re sorry that you’re experiencing this issue with our plugin. We appreciate your cooperation and patience as we try to find a solution for you.

To be able to help troubleshoot this, we’ll need to see your debug log to understand what is causing the error on your website. The debug log is a file that records any errors or warnings that occur on your site. It can help us identify and fix the problem faster.

To share your debug log with us, please follow these steps carefully:

• Open your wp-config.php file. You can find it in the root folder of your site, usually in /public_html/ or /www/.
• Before the line that says /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */, add this code:

  // Enable WP_DEBUG mode
  define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
  
  // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
  define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
  
  // Disable display of errors and warnings
  define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );
  @ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 );

  This code will enable the debug mode and create a debug.log file in the /wp-content/ folder of your site.

• Go to your website and try to perform the action that caused the error again, i.e. updating a post when the Rank Math plugin is active. This will trigger the error and generate the debug.log file.
• Go to the /wp-content/ folder of your site and look for the debug.log file. It should contain some information about the error that occurred.
• Send us a copy of the debug.log file. You can use a service like pastebin.com or wetransfer.com to upload it and share the link with us.

We hope these instructions are clear and easy to follow. If you have any difficulty or questions, please let us know. We’re here to help you.

Thank you for using Rank Math.

Hello,

Can you please confirm if you’re using Auto-Submit Post Types for Instant Indexing? If so, please try to submit a single URL manually under WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Instant Indexing. It will trigger the history log to appear in the Instant Indexing feature.

​​​​​​​After that, the automatic submission will work correctly for all the post types that you have enabled in the settings, and it should resolve the issue.

Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.
