Word Press connection with RankMath

    Rank Math free

    Hi,

    I have signed up for a Rank Math account (with email address h****@t**********************) for my website https://thegrangeholidays.co.uk.
    Within the RankMath account the website shows as connected. But within WordPress it’s showing as disconnected and when I click the Connect Now button I get the PlugIn Activation page. I can click ‘OK ACTIVATE NOW’ but it still shows as disconnected on the RankMath SEO > Help page.

    In addition I wasn’t able to complete the step: “Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Analytics and click on the Test Connections option” as I do not see the General Settings menu option.

    Please can you advise how I can get this working?

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with the connection between your WordPress site and your Rank Math account. Thank you for raising this concern.

    To resolve the disconnection issue, please follow these steps:

    1. Disconnect Your Account: Go to Rank Math SEO → Dashboard → Help in your WordPress admin area. If it shows as connected, choose Disconnect Account.
      Choose Disconnect account

    2. Reconnect Your Account: After disconnecting, click the Connect Now button on the same page.
      Click Connect Now

    3. Select the Correct Account: Ensure you select the correct Rank Math account associated with your PRO license and click OK, ACTIVATE NOW.
      Activate Rank Math PRO Subscription

    4. Check Connection Status: Once reconnected, check the Help page again to see if it shows as connected.

    Regarding the General Settings → Analytics menu option, this is available only in the Advanced Mode of Rank Math. If you do not see this option, you may need to switch from Easy Mode to Advanced Mode. You can find instructions on how to do this in our documentation here.

    If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

    We hope this helps you get everything working smoothly!

    I have followed these steps as much as I can and the issue is not resolved. Wtihin WordPress the plug still shows as Not Connected.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to this issue.

    Please confirm that the WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) are the same in WordPress Dashboard > Settings > General. Both need to be the same for the Plugin to function smoothly.

    If they were the same, then add this filter to your website:

    /**
    * Filter whether we need to check for URL mismatch or not.
    */
    add_filter( 'rank_math/registration/do_url_check', '__return_false' );

    Here’s how you can add the filter: https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/

    Once done, please clear your website’s cache, and reconnect your Rank Math account one more time.

    Let us know how this goes. Please let us know if you have further questions or concerns.

    Thank you.

    Hi Ike,

    I followed your instructions and the issue still persists.

    The URLs are the same. I added the snippet and cleared the cache. Then tried to connect WordPress to RankMath again but it is still disconnected.

    Hello,

    In this case, we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

    Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.

    It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/

    You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/

    We really look forward to helping you.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    The available features showing in Rank Math are the Dashboard and Status & Tools.

    Could you please confirm if you’re using a multisite setup/environment for that website?

    If not, please try reinstalling the Rank Math plugin and complete the Setup Wizard.

    Let us know how this goes.

    Hello,

    Since we did not hear back from you for 15 days, we are assuming that you found the solution. We are closing this support ticket.
