    Because Google wants time zone in this format please tell me

    Please tell me which is this time zone (ISO 8601) and how can we use it in our website. Yoast SEO gives this time zone by default. Does Rank Math also give it?

  • Hello, we apologize for the inconvenience you’re facing. To set the time zone format in Rank Math, you can select either the 12-hour or 24-hour format. This can be done in the Local SEO settings of Rank Math.

    Here’s how you can do it:

    1. Go to your WordPress dashboard and navigate to Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Local SEO.
    2. Scroll down to the “Opening Hours Format” section.
    3. Select the preferred format from the dropdown menu.

    Select Opening Hours Format

    If you have any further questions or need assistance with anything else, please feel free to ask.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your patience.

    Rank Math already adds the datePublished and dateModified fields to the Schema in ISO 8601 format automatically, so you won’t need to change the settings.

    Here are the dates that Rank Math adds on your site:

    Hope that helps.

    how can we use it in our website.

    Hello,

    Rank Math automatically includes the datePublished and dateModified (when you edit or modify your post after publishing) entities on your Article Schema with ISO 8601 format. Can you please confirm they are not included in your posts? If so, you can share any affected post URL with us so that we can check the issue further for you.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    I want to say that like yoast seo default gives this format why rank math does not give

    You can see that there is a difference between yoast seo and rank math regarding time format.

    Hello,

    That is controlled by the Timezone value under WordPress > Settings > General

    It looks like the current Timezone that you have set is UTC +05:30.

    Kindly set is as just UTC to get the timezone as +00:00.
