Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the redirection not working when there is a query string in the URL. Since you mentioned that you have turned off the Ignore Query Parameters option in the 404 settings, it should ideally allow the 404 monitor to log errors with query strings.
However, for handling redirects with query strings effectively, you may need to set up parameterized redirects. This feature is available in the PRO version of Rank Math. Here’s a brief overview of how to set up parameterized redirects:
- Go to Rank Math SEO in your WordPress Admin dashboard.
- Navigate to Redirections.
- Add the parameterized URL as the Source URL (e.g.,
/your-page?p=508) and specify the Destination URL where you want to redirect users.
- Click on the Update Redirection button.
For more detailed guidance, you can refer to this tutorial on setting up redirections.
If you are looking for comprehensive assistance or if you want to ensure your setup is fully correct and adheres to the latest SEO standards, we recommend considering our professional setup service, which requires a PRO subscription. You can find more information about this service here.

Thank you for raising this concern!
