Hello,
This is the second time I’ve encountered the error “Missing ‘,’ or ‘}’” in the generated JSON-LD schema.
The first time it happened, the issue was caused by special characters in the post title (such as =, ” and ()), which broke the JSON structure.
Now, it is happening again, even though the title does not contain those characters. Here’s an example of the output: https://pastebin.com/raw/QCGANntW
As you can see, the closing brackets do not match properly, which results in invalid JSON.
Could you please check why Rank Math is generating malformed JSON-LD in this case?

Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the malformed JSON-LD schema generated by Rank Math. It seems that the error you encountered, "Missing ‘,’ or ‘}’", can often be attributed to special characters or formatting issues in the schema markup.
To troubleshoot this, we recommend validating your structured data using the Code Validation feature in Rank Math. Here’s how you can do it:
- Open the Custom Schema Builder for your post or page.
- Click on the Code Validation tab to view the generated JSON-LD code.
- Ensure your post is saved as a draft to see the complete code.
- Use the Copy button to copy the JSON-LD code and validate it using any Schema Testing tool, or click Test with Google to check it directly with Google’s Rich Results Testing Tool.
- If you find any errors, they will be highlighted, allowing you to make necessary adjustments.
If the issue persists after validating and correcting any errors, it may be beneficial to check for potential conflicts with other plugins or themes that might be affecting the schema generation. You can refer to our guide on checking plugin conflicts for more information.
If you would like comprehensive assistance, we also offer a professional setup service to ensure your plugin is configured correctly according to the latest SEO standards. You can find more details about this service here.
Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention! If you have further questions or need additional help, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.
