Rankmath somehow autamatically changes my urls

Hello, we apologize for the issue you are facing with Rank Math automatically changing your URLs. This can happen due to several reasons, such as other redirection plugins interfering or misconfigured redirects within Rank Math itself.

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

1. Check for Other Redirection Plugins: Ensure that you do not have any other redirection plugins installed that might be creating conflicting redirects. If you find any, consider removing them and checking if the problem persists.

2. Review .htaccess or nginx.config File: Check your .htaccess (or nginx.conf) file for any existing redirection rules. You can do this through the Rank Math plugin by navigating to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Edit .htaccess. If you see any unwanted rules, you can delete them. Here’s how it looks:
   

3. Check Redirections Created with Rank Math: If you have manually created redirects using Rank Math, review those settings to ensure there are no broad redirects that could be causing issues. You can check the recently created redirections in Rank Math and verify their configurations:
   

4. Auto Post Redirect Feature: Rank Math has an auto post redirect feature that ensures old URLs redirect to new ones. If this feature is enabled, it might be causing the changes you are observing. You can manage these settings in the plugin.

If after following these steps the issue still persists, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!

Hello,

We checked the URLs you’ve shared and we can see they both are working and they are different pages.

However, please note that Rank Math doesn’t have any option to change the permalink of any post/page automatically. In this case, please share a screencast of the issue by using a tool like https://loom.com so that we can check the issue further for you.

Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.

Hello,

We’re not sure how this is possible because Rank Math does not have any functionality capable of changing your page slugs in the way you’ve described.

If you continue to experience this issue, please perform a plugin conflict to know which plugin is causing the issue. Learn more here: https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/

Thank you for your patience and cooperation
