    Dear RankMath support,

    In the last 30 days, we’ve been facing significant challenges due to a 500 server error that happens when we try to update pages in Elementor. We doubled checked our server and I can confirm that we meet the requirements to run Elementor – so it is not related to a memory issue. We submitted a support ticket to Elementor, and after some investigations by their team, they figured out that the 500 server error is actually caused by RankMath SEO. When we turn off the RankMath SEO plugin, the 500 server error doesn’t happen. Is there a way to fix this problem please?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    5xx errors are usually caused due to server misconfiguration or other server issues.

    Can you please share the website error log with us? Having the error log file will give a clear idea of why this might be happening.

    You may also get in touch with your web host for assistance to retrieve the error log.

    Having an error log will help us determine what is causing the issue when saving in Elementor.

    Looking forward to helping you.
