Category Editing is not working

    Hi, I’m using RM with Geodirectory. Today, for some reason, every time I go to update a category, it says ‘category updated’ but none of my updates are there. For example, I have a business directory, so I go to the category ‘Hair stylists’ and using RM, I update the keyword and snippet until RM is showing a score of 100. Then I hit ‘update’ and it says ‘category updated’ but there is no new snippet, no key word, and the score has gone back to zero.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    I’m sorry to hear that you are facing issues with updating categories in Rank Math while using Geodirectory. It seems like the changes you are making are not reflecting after updating the category.

    1. Clear your browser cache and cookies.
    2. Deactivate any caching plugins temporarily.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your patience.

    In this case, please check if you are using a Firewall as it may prevent saving the changes.

    If you are using a Firewall, please whitelist this route:

    /wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta

    Thank you but I am not using a firewall. Also, the issue only occurs when updating snippets and key words on geodirectory categories, not on the CPTs themselves, which i can update with no problem.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    The website’s temporary admin login URL you’ve shared has expired and it is redirecting to your homepage.

    Please try to update the logins in the sensitive data section so that we can check the issue further for you.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    This issue was fixed on the latest minor update of our Free plugin which is installed on your website now.

    The data inside the categories can be saved correctly moving forward.

    Thank you.
