RankMath not updating fixes

Hello,

I apologize for the issue you are facing with Rank Math not updating the fixes you make under “errors” and the red X not changing to a green check mark despite having automated updates enabled.

This issue might occur due to various reasons, such as a misconfiguration in the settings or a conflict with other plugins. To troubleshoot this, please follow these steps:

1. Check Rank Math Version: Ensure that you have the latest version of Rank Math installed. You can verify this by navigating to your WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Status & Tools → Version Control. If an update is available, you will see a notification prompting you to update the plugin.

   

2. Reconnect Rank Math: Sometimes, reconnecting Rank Math can resolve update-related issues. After adding relevant code, reconnect Rank Math one more time. This should fix the auto-update problem, allowing you to update the plugin without any issues in the future.

   Note: Please ensure to take a backup of your site before making any changes or modifications.

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

Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention. We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this issue for you.

Warm regards.

Hello,

We might need to take a closer look at the settings. 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.

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):

Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.

Hello,

Please note that the focus keyword used must match exactly – i.e. word-for-word – with what you have in the meta description, title and URL for it to be ‘found’ by Rank Math.

However, please note the SEO score is only for your reference and doesn’t affect the actual SEO performance of your site. If you feel that the tests don’t apply to your pages then you can safely ignore them or you can disable the tests by following this guideline: https://rankmath.com/kb/disable-seo-content-tests/

Hope that helps and please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.

Thank you.
