Word Counts Not Consistently Accurate With ACF Blocks

    Good morning,

    We have a custom WordPress site developed for our Agency and it was built with custom ACF blocks. On some of the pages the SEO word counts do not match what is actually on page. On some pages the count is correct.

    I have heard that the word count feature does not work with ACF blocks but in my experience it does work at times. I was wondering if you had any suggestions to get this working consistently.

    I love the plugin, this is the only thing that I would like to see functional. Thanks.

    Brad

  • Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out to us with this concern about the word counts not consistently matching with ACF blocks on your custom WordPress site.

    We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you love using our plugin. Regarding the issue you are facing, the word count feature may not always work seamlessly with ACF blocks, but it should ideally provide accurate counts.

    To ensure that the word count feature works consistently with ACF blocks on all your pages, we recommend the following steps:

    1. Refresh Content AI Credits: Sometimes refreshing the Content AI credits can help resolve such discrepancies. Please follow the steps mentioned in this guide to refresh your credits: Content AI Refresh Credits Guide

    2. Check ACF Field Settings: Verify that the ACF fields are correctly set up and integrated with Rank Math. Ensure that the ACF fields are properly configured to be counted by Rank Math’s word count feature.

    3. Update Rank Math & ACF Plugin: Make sure you are using the latest versions of both Rank Math and the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plugin. Outdated plugins can sometimes cause compatibility issues.

    If after following these steps, you still encounter inconsistencies with the word counts, please reply to this ticket, and one of our human agents will further investigate and assist you in resolving this issue.

    Thank you for your understanding, and we are here to help with any further assistance you may need.

    Hello,

    Thank you so much for getting in touch. I understand you want to have the Rank Math word count work consistently.

    Please ensure that you have turned on the ACF module to ensure that Rank Math is reading your ACF properly. You can check that in Rank Math > Dashboard > Modules.

    If that doesn’t work, please head over to the post type you are working on Rank Math > Titles & Meta, and insert the custom fields you have created in the “Custom Fields” options:
