    Hello, we recently switched to Rank Math from Yoast. However I am unable to edit the virtual robots.txt from the Edit robots.txt screen. We do not have a physical robots.txt. Is there some action we must perform to allow this virtual robots.txt to become editable?

    Thank you for your time.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    Would you mind letting me know the error that is reported on this page?
    Additionally, please check whether file editing has been turned off on your site by performing the below steps:
    1). Login to your site via FTP.
    2). Locate and make a backup of your wp-config.php file on the root folder.
    3). Open up your wp-config.php file for editing (you may have to download a copy to your local computer)
    4). Search for the text: DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT
    5). If you find the text, it will look something like:
    define( ‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, true ); you can set this to false.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
