Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the Google Search Console message regarding “Another page with correct canonical tag.”
The message you received indicates that Google has detected another page with the correct canonical tag for the URL `https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/advanced-mode-8-scaled.jpg even though you did not create it. This situation can occur due to various reasons, such as dynamic URL generation or external factors.
To address this issue, you can follow these steps:
- Verify if the URL `https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/advanced-mode-8-scaled.jpg is indeed not created on your site.
- If the URL does not exist on your site, you can request Google to reindex your site to potentially resolve the issue.

If you need further assistance or have any questions, please feel free to reply here, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you promptly.

Why GSC Shows “No Referring Sitemaps Detected”
Hello,
You can ignore the URLs with the ?PageSpeed=noscript as they have the canonical of the main page and aren’t going to get indexed. That’s why there will be no duplicate content issues with them for the search engines.
You should use the you should use the URL inspection tool of your GSC account to inspect that URL and check the referring page where are they coming from.
Once you know their referring page, you can remove or update the URL so Google won’t discover those kinds of URLs.
Hope that helps.
Good morning,
Here is the catch for redirect issues and the catch for no-index issues.

Hello,
1. You can ignore the Page with the Redirect error as the URLs mentioned there are non-preferred versions of your domain. Your site’s preferred version is HTTPS non-WWW, and those URLs are supposed to be redirected to it.
2. The mentioned pages are indeed set to Noindex. Please edit them and set them to Index in the Advanced tab of our meta box and wait for Google to crawl them again. For the URLs with search_term_string, please add the following rule in your robots.txt file to prevent Google from crawling them:
Disallow: *?s={search_term_string}
Here is how to edit your site’s robots.txt file with Rank Math: https://rankmath.com/kb/how-to-edit-robots-txt-with-rank-math/
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Good morning,
I added this Disallow line: *?s={search_term_string} in the robot.txt of rank math.
On the other hand, as for this url https://voiledepudeur.com/khimar/ or this one https://voiledepudeur.com/qamis-saoudien-3/, these are both old urls but the new one for each is: < a href=”https://voiledepudeur.com/khimar/”>https://voiledepudeur.com/khimars/ https://voiledepudeur.com/qamis-othman/.
The second redirects to the correct url so I don’t understand why the console tells me this old url ending with “qamis-saoudien-3” and as for the url ending with “khimar” I don’t understand why it redirects to the home page even though it does not have a redirection. When I redirect it to the url ending with “Khimars” a redirection loop error occurs.
Thank you in advance for your assistance
Hello,
Those 2 old URLs you have shared are redirecting fine to the new URLs.
If those are still showing a redirect on your homepage, then please clear your website’s cache and revalidate the issue in your Google Search Console account and give Google some time to recrawl your site.
Moreover, as long as the redirection correctly happens on your site, then you should be fine.
Hope that helps.
