    Rank Math free

    Hello.
    I have been noticing some issues with RankMath lately and I’m hoping you can help.

    1. My sitemap does not seem to be updating correctly. I have two blog posts that I set to no-index (using RankMath) but weeks later they are still appearing on the sitemap.
    2. My WordPress dashboard has not been updated since 6th December on one site & 30th November on another

    Any ideas?

  • Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear about the issues you are facing with Rank Math. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

    1. Regarding your sitemap not updating correctly, if you have set blog posts to no-index using Rank Math but they are still appearing on the sitemap, it might be due to custom canonicals overriding the settings. Rank Math includes a self-referencing canonical for all posts set to index. If you have added a custom canonical to a post, it may not appear in the sitemap. To resolve this, you should remove the custom canonical from those posts and allow Rank Math to generate the canonical. This should ensure that only indexed posts appear in the sitemap.

    2. As for your WordPress dashboard not updating, this could be due to various reasons, including caching issues or conflicts with other plugins. To troubleshoot this, you can try clearing your website cache, disabling any caching plugins temporarily, and checking for any recent plugin updates that might be causing conflicts.

    If the above suggestions do not resolve your issues, please let us know, and we will be happy to assist further.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
