Removed Base

Hello,

I’m sorry to hear about the issue you are facing with the redirects in Google Search Console after removing the product prefix from your categories and products. It seems like there are more redirects in Google Search Console than what you see in Rank Math on your website.

To address this, you can follow these steps to remove the redirects in Google Search Console:

1. Access Google Search Console: Log in to your Google Search Console account.

2. Navigate to the Redirects: Look for the section where you can manage redirects or URL changes within Google Search Console.

3. Review and Remove Redirects: Review the list of redirects that are causing issues and remove them accordingly. You can delete the unnecessary redirects one by one.

If you need further assistance or detailed guidance, please provide the link to your loom video so we can better understand the issue you are facing and provide more specific help.

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math support.

When you enable the Remove Base and Remove Category Base options, our plugin redirects the old URL structures of your products and categories to the new ones. This is done automatically, and you will not find these redirects in the Redirections module.

This is done so Google can find the new URLs and index them. This isn’t an issue. If your old URLs were already indexed, then it is expected to see a Page with Redirect status in your GSC account for those URLs. It confirms that Google is able to detect the redirect and will crawl and index the new URLs.

Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
