RankMath problem importing from Yoast .

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with importing data from Yoast into Rank Math. It seems that the import process is hanging during the SEO recalculation step, which can be frustrating.

Here are a few suggestions to help resolve this issue:

1. Update Rank Math: Ensure that you are using the latest version of Rank Math. Sometimes, older versions may have bugs that have been fixed in newer releases.

2. Check for Plugin Conflicts: Deactivate other plugins temporarily to see if there is a conflict causing the import to hang. After deactivating, try the import process again.

3. Increase PHP Memory Limit: Sometimes, increasing the PHP memory limit can help with such issues. You can do this by adding the following line to your wp-config.php file:

   define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

4. Use Import & Export Feature: If the Setup Wizard continues to hang, you can try using the Import & Export feature instead. Navigate to Rank Math SEO → Status & Tools → Import & Export, and select the data you want to import from Yoast.

5. Check Server Logs: If possible, check your server logs for any errors that might indicate what is causing the hang during the import process.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so that a human agent from our support team can assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern, and we hope to get this resolved for you soon!

Hello,

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

You can continue the setup by skipping the importing process. After that, please try reimporting the data in WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Status & Tools > Import & Export > Other Plugins, then under the plugin column, uncheck the Calculate SEO Scores option below, and click the Import button.

Here’s a screenshot for your reference:

Please note that some options are only available in Advanced Mode. If you are not able to find the Import & Export, please try to switch to Advanced Mode: https://rankmath.com/kb/switch-from-easy-to-advanced-mode/
