Hello,

These are likely different issues and the solution shared in that ticket may not work for your.

However, it seems you are unable to save your focus keyword and other meta data settings and this is usually caused by some sort of blockage on the route to save the metadata on the website, a conflict with plugins, a javascript error, or a firewall-related issue.

Here is how you can fix it:

• Firstly, ensure that you have the latest version of Rank Math installed on your site.
• Check if your firewall or security plugin is blocking access to Rank Math’s files. You can do this by looking at your firewall logs and seeing if there are any blocked requests to these files:

  /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta
  /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateSchemas
  /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateRedirection
  /wp-json/rankmath/v1/getFeaturedImageId
  /wp-json/rankmath/v1/getHead

  If you see any blocked requests, you need to whitelist Rank Math and its files in your firewall or security plugin settings.
