Remove 301 redirect

Hello,

I’m sorry to hear that you’re facing difficulties with finding and removing a 301 redirect. If you’ve tried using the debugger feature but still couldn’t locate the redirect rule or the redirected URL, let’s try a different approach.

To remove a 301 redirect using Rank Math, you can follow these steps:

1. Check .htaccess or nginx.conf File:
   • Navigate to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Edit .htaccess.
   • Look for any additional redirection rules in the file and delete the ones causing issues.
   • Save the changes.

If you are unable to find the redirect rule even after following these steps, please reply to this ticket. A human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Hello,

The redirection of the first URL is not coming from Rank Math, but instead, it is coming from the WordPress native function to auto-complete similar URLs on your site.

You can use this tool to check it as well: https://httpstatus.io/

To fix this, you may follow the steps in any of the guides below to stop WordPress from auto-correcting/guessing the URL:
