Hello Rank Math Support, I’ve installed and activated Rank Math on my staging and local WordPress environments, and the Setup Wizard works fine there. However, when I activate it on our production site the Setup Wizard page (wp-admin/admin.php?page=rank-math-registration) only shows a blank screen.

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with the Setup Wizard showing a blank page on your production site. This can sometimes happen due to conflicts with themes or other plugins, or it could be related to server settings.

Here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Clear Cache: If you have any caching plugins active, clear the cache and try accessing the Setup Wizard again.
2. Disable Other Plugins: Temporarily disable other plugins to see if there is a conflict causing the blank screen.
3. Switch Theme: If possible, switch to a default WordPress theme (like Twenty Twenty-One) to check if the issue persists.
4. Check Error Logs: Look at your server’s error logs for any messages that might indicate what is going wrong.
5. Increase PHP Memory Limit: Sometimes, increasing the PHP memory limit can resolve such issues. You can do this by adding define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M'); to your wp-config.php file.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so that we can assist you further. A human agent from our support team will take over and provide more specific guidance.

Thank you for raising this concern!

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. I have already tested all the suggested troubleshooting steps:

Cleared all caches (server + Cloudflare).

Disabled all plugins except Rank Math.

Switched to a default WordPress theme (Twenty Twenty-Five).

Checked server/PHP error logs → no fatal errors.

Increased PHP memory limit.

Unfortunately, the issue still persists on production: the Setup Wizard shows only a blank page.

The problem occurs only in production. Local and staging sites with the same setup work fine.

Even with all plugins disabled and a default theme, the issue persists.

Could you please escalate this to a human support agent? My site is eco.sapo.pt

Thank you for your assistance,

Hello,

We apologize for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

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.

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:

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):

Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.
