Hello!
When I installed Rank Math in the website 2 years ago, I added my redirection list because I was rebuilding the website. I did my homework and I got the existing URLs to then redirect them in the new website with Rank Math. This was 2 years ago.
I’ve been going through my Google Search Console errors and I have some errors with pages with redirect. I spotted this one, and many more like this.

https://butlerplumbinginc.com/2022/10/18/Now, these 2 URLs are not in the redirect list anymore. I remember adding them 2 years ago but now they’re gone. There’s a few more URLs like the ones above.
I spoke with my server tech support and they found this in the database

What I want is to change these URLs to a 410 content deleted or even the blog page since it’s related to the blog…

Hello,
Thank you for your query and we are so sorry about the trouble this must have caused.
You have used the option in Rank Math to disable the date archives. That is why those URLs are redirecting to the homepage. Here is a screenshot for reference:
If you no longer want Rank Math to redirect them to the homepage, you can keep the option in the screenshot “Enabled”.
Then, you can create a 410 from the Redirections module by going to WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Redirections.
More on that here: https://rankmath.com/kb/setting-up-redirections/#maintenance-code
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need my assistance with anything else.
