    Hi Rank Math Support

    Ahrefs is showing a critical error for our web page, it shows multiple meta data for the same pages! I have checked that we have no additional seo plugins!

    Hello again,

    Thank you for providing us with more information. We appreciate your cooperation.

    We have inspected your website’s source code and we have confirmed that there are multiple meta-data tags for the same pages. This can cause confusion for search engines and affect your SEO performance.

    We have identified that Rank Math is adding one set of meta-data tags to your pages, as it should (https://i.rankmath.com/i/5iijRf). However, we are not sure what is the source of the other set of meta-data tags. It could be your theme or another plugin that is also adding meta-data tags to your pages (https://i.rankmath.com/i/zEQQxY).

    To find out the cause of this issue, you need to do some troubleshooting steps. Please follow these steps carefully:

    1. First, you need to check if your theme is adding the extra meta-data tags to your pages. To do this, you need to switch to a default WordPress theme, like TwentyTwentyTwo, temporarily. You can do this by going to Appearance > Themes in your WordPress dashboard and activating the default theme.
    2. Next, you need to clear your website and server cache, if you have any. This will ensure that your pages are loading the latest version of your source code.
    3. Then, you need to visit view-source:https://notrianglestudio.com/3d-rendering-vancouver in your browser and press CTRL+F (Windows) / Command + F (Mac) to search for og:description. This is one of the meta-data tags that we found duplicated on your pages.
    4. If you find only one occurrence of the og:description tag in your source code, then it means that your theme was adding the extra meta-data tags to your pages. In that case, you need to contact your theme developer and ask them how to remove their meta-data tags from your pages. You can also switch back to your original theme after contacting them.
    5. If you find more than one occurrence of the og:description tag in your source code, then it means that your theme is not the problem and there is another plugin that is adding the extra meta-data tags to your pages. In that case, you need to check if there is any plugin conflict on your site. You can do this by disabling all other plugins except Rank Math and testing again. If the issue is resolved, then you can enable the plugins one by one and test again until you find the plugin that is causing the issue. You can follow this guide for more details: https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/

    We hope this helps you find and fix the issue with the multiple meta-data tags on your pages. Please let us know how it goes and if you have any questions or concerns about the steps. We are always here to help you.

    Best regards,
