Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
It is likely that you were hit by a algorithm update. I’ve checked your site and sitelinks schema is available on your homepage.
Please give this a few weeks and check if there is any change.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
It’s exactly when I do the change, hence I don’t think is algorithm update.
Hi,
I appreciate your patience.
Rank Math adds the Sitelinks search box only to the homepage. We are aware some SEO plugins add it to the entire website but that is not the correct way to do it.
It only needs to be present on the homepage as per Google:

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
I get that, but there is something wrong that suddenly I lost all Sitelinks searchbox results when changed to Rank Math.
But I have investigated it further and it looks like Installation of Rank Math is in same time when algorithm changed on google. 12/4 when I installed on 13/4. Then I see the rapid drop.
Interesting is that on 5 websites see the drop when 2 of them use Rank Math, and there is 6th that have still results but they are way slower declining and this website not using Rank Math yet.
I will keep looking on that, as yesterday result for my website increase from 1 to 2… hence maybe Rank Math will regain it, but it requires some time. Will check after 7 days and update.

Its slowly gaining back. Think that is not plugin related and more rather algorythm.
