Hello,
I apologize for the inconvenience you are facing with the whitelisted domains still showing as nofollow. I understand that you have whitelisted the domain https://rankmath.com/kb/fix-sitemap-issues/ but the links are not syncing as expected.
To troubleshoot this issue, please ensure the following:
-
Nofollow External Links Setting: Make sure that the “Nofollow External Links” setting is enabled in Rank Math. If this setting is disabled, the whitelist will not have any effect.
-
Correct Domain Format: Verify that you have added the domain in the correct format. Rank Math can understand various domain URL variations, so ensure you have added it correctly.
-
Save Changes: After adding the domain to the whitelist, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the “Save Changes” button to ensure the settings are saved.
If after checking these points, the issue persists, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will further investigate and assist you in resolving this matter.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
