Redirect issue!

#999559
  • Resolved Nicholas Landry
    Rank Math free

    Hi there. WE are currently using the free version of the plugin and debating whether to go PRO or use YOAST.
    I am currently having a really big issue with redirections on Rank Math.
    I am trying to create the following page: https://www.flo.com/en-ca/business/retail
    Howver this constantly redirects to https://www.flo.com/en-ca/business/. If you do a Curl lookup, youll see its a redirect due to Rank MAth.
    We never used rank math for any redirections. I only use wpEngine for redirection rules. We have NOTHING setup to redirect this page at all. Ive deactivated the plugin, cleared all caches, incognito, nothing changes this. I think there is a bug inside your plugin. I went to the phpadmin side of things and checked the tables, there is nothing there about a retail redirect. Really need some help asap….

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with the redirection on your site. It sounds quite frustrating, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

    Since you mentioned that the page is redirecting without any configuration in Rank Math, it could be due to several reasons. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

    1. Check for Unknown Redirects: Sometimes, other plugins or themes may cause unexpected redirects. You can refer to our guide on fixing random URLs redirecting to identify potential causes.

    2. Debug Redirection Feature: Use Rank Math’s debug redirection feature to see if it provides any insights into why the redirect is happening. You can find more information on this in our documentation.

    3. Check Server-Level Redirects: Since you mentioned using WP Engine, ensure that there are no server-level redirects set up that might be affecting this URL.

    4. Clear Caches: Although you’ve mentioned clearing caches, ensure that both your browser cache and any server-side caching (like WP Engine’s caching) are fully cleared.

    5. Update Rank Math: Ensure that you are using the latest version of Rank Math, as updates often include bug fixes and improvements.

    If the issue persists after trying these steps, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so that a human agent from our support team can assist you further. We want to ensure that this issue is resolved as quickly as possible for you.

    Thank you for your patience, and we look forward to helping you resolve this issue!

    Hello,

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

    Can you please confirm if this is an attachment page? If so, please head over to your WP Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > Links and from there disable the Redirect Attachments option:

    You can check this URL to learn more about this option: https://rankmath.com/kb/should-you-redirect-attachments/

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

    Hi, kindly urgently needing a response or solution for this. Thanks!!

    Hello,

    Thank you for your patience.

    Could you please confirm if you have disabled the redirect attachments option, cleared your website’s cache, and checked the URL again?

    If it’s still redirecting even if that option is disabled, then 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.

    Sensitive Data Section

    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):

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/

    We really look forward to helping you.

    Hello,

    Since we did not hear back from you for 15 days, we are assuming that you found the solution. We are closing this support ticket.

    If you still need assistance or any other help, please feel free to open a new support ticket, and we will be more than happy to assist.

    Thank you.
