You have not linked Google Search Console yet

    The RankMath plugin SEO Analysis page is reporting the failed test of “You have not linked Google Search Console yet”, but I have been able to link to the Google Search Console and the RankMath Search Console page is showing stats. Why is reporting this as a failed test? Is there an underlying problem? It’s making me wonder about the other failed tests that it’s reporting. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you

    Hello,

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

    I think we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
    Sensitive Data Section

    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):

    We really look forward to helping you.

    Hi Alberto

    Thanks for your quick reply.

    I’m all ready to set up a temporary login. What email should I use for the temporary account? I assume you’ll need the role to be Administrator and that 1 week is long enough initially for the account?

    Cheers
    Graeme

    Hello,

    Yes, 1 week is fine. And yes, we will need the administrator role to check everything is fine there.

    You can use s******@r*********** as the login email.

    Looking forward to help you.

    Hello,

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

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for follow up.

    I was able to access your site. I cleared your site cache, removed transients and flushed SEO analysis data in Rank math > Status & Tools > Database Tools then performed the analysis again which seems to have resolved the issue. Please check and let us know.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Hi Michael

    Thanks v. much for doing that and for responding so quickly.

    So I know for next time, how did you clear the site cache?

    Many thanks

    Hello,

    I have recorded a screencast showing you where to click to do it, I attached it in your Sensitive Data section.
