Hello,

Could you please confirm if you’re referring to the description in the Rank Math meta box?

If so, the data in the title or description are not going to be shown on the front end as it applies to your category page’s meta tags and can be found in the source code for Search Engines

However, if you’re referring to a different option/setting, you may share the image so we can check and advise accordingly. You can upload screenshots using this tool and add the link here.

Looking forward to helping you.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing the screenshot.

That section is not coming from Rank Math as it is the default description from category pages of WordPress, and your theme controls the display of the content you have added in that box.

In this case, we recommend getting in touch with your theme provider for assistance in showing them on the front end of your category pages.

Looking forward to helping you.

Hello,

Any data that is visible to the users such as the description of any category is handled by theme files, particularly by the archive.php file of the theme you are using.

We override the default field for this to add a TinyMCE editor that would allow people to add additional markup but the way that is displayed or not on the page is fully controlled by theme files and we cannot do anything about it.

Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any other questions.
