Then there was this

    I went from Yoast to Rank Math and everything was fine until last Friday. Did a little digging and this is the “super cool” new issue.

    Updated with sensitive information. This has stumped me all day. I have completely run out of ideas on resolving this issue.

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Everything seems to be registered correctly on your page source as shown below:

    Could you please login to your search console and check any coverage errors that relate to the homepage?

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Which makes 0 sense to me. I don’t have the homepage settings as unindexable and in my general settings, I have the box unclicked so it can index the page. I have hummingbird pro but have the Googlebot and the sitemap all on the exclude cache list.

    And there isn’t a robots.txt file anywhere to be found in cPanel.

    Hi,

    I do not see any issue:

    null

    Was that screenshot taken from a phone?

    If so, you may have some issues with your mobile site/AMPs.

    If not, please search from an incognito.

    Let me know how it goes.

    This has been resolved. It was the WP Security Plugin that was causing an issue. After I turned off the block all fake bots setting it allowed us to submit the sitemaps. I will leave that off and just build my robots.txt file.

    Thanks everyone!
