Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention.
It is a pretty common mistake to open the page source and search for a
noindextag to see if the page is marked as noindex or not.However, Rank Math offers a No Index option in the admin menu bar, which could show up in the page’s source code when logged in like the codes you have shared.
Please note that the actual noindex tag is added like this:
<meta robots="noindex">To ensure that your post/page is set to index, you should refer to this section in your page’s source code or visit the page using incognito mode (logged out from your WP dashboard):
Hope that helps.
