Search Console Empty

    Hi,
    I’m in the process of setting up Rankmath and am up to the Analytics page where Im connecting Google Services.
    Under Search Console – Site … the box has no website address and the dropdown has no address in it either.
    I’ve tried to manually enter my website address in that field but it won’t take it.
    I’m working in Chrome but have tried it in Edge as well without success.

    Not sure what I should do next without mucking everything up even more.
    Could you please give me some advice on the best way forward to solve this issue.
    Really appreciate your advice on this issue as I can’t move past this point on the setup with Google.
    Thanks.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    You can skip the Google connection process in the Setup Wizard and after completing the setup please follow this guide to remove Rank Math App from your Google account and reconnect it from WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > Analytics with all the required permissions, and see if that resolves the issue: https://rankmath.com/kb/analytics-issues/#expired-google-oauth-token

    Also, please make sure that you’ve connected the correct Google account and not connecting to Google Search Console via a domain property but rather a URL prefix and that you have verified the correct version of your website on the Google Search Console (HTTP or HTTPS, www or non-www).

    Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    Thanks for getting back to me.
    I’ve done that and the box is still empty.
    I wasn’t able to confirm that the web address was in the correct form though (didn’t know where to look)
    It is https://hexxxnutxxxxxxsoxxtions.com
    What would you recommend now please.

    Hello,

    Before further troubleshooting, please ensure that you have verified your email/account as the owner of the property. Go to your Google Search Console > Settings > Users and permissions:

    If the issue still persists, then we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

    Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.
    Sensitive Data Section

    It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/

    You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    Hello,

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