Troubleshooting Rank Math Issues: Common Sitemap Problems to Content AI Glitches

    I’m using Rank Math for SEO on my WordPress shopping site, which sells heart-shaped products, and I’ve run into a bunch of frustrating issues. These include sitemap problems like blank pages, 404 errors, and XML parsing issues. On top of that, the analytics seem off—sometimes there’s no data showing, sudden drops to zero, or expired Google OAuth tokens.

    I also have some problems with the Content AI Creator, such as it generating repetitive or poorly written content, and overall the SEO features just aren’t performing well.

    Can someone explain how to properly set up the sitemap to avoid these issues? Also, is anyone else dealing with the same problems? If I can’t get this sorted out soon, I’m seriously thinking of dropping Rank Math and switching to something else.

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issues you are facing with Rank Math. It sounds quite frustrating, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.

    Troubleshooting Sitemap Issues

    For the sitemap problems you’re experiencing, here are some common solutions:

    1. Blank or White Page: If your sitemap shows a blank page, check the source code. If it’s empty, there may be a conflict with another plugin or theme. You can use the Health Check plugin to identify the issue. If there is data in the source code, try flushing the sitemap cache and ensuring it’s excluded from caching plugins.

    2. 404 Errors: If you encounter a 404 error when accessing your sitemap, you may need to flush your permalinks. Go to Settings → Permalinks in your WordPress admin area and click “Save Changes” without making any changes.

    3. XML Parsing Issues: Ensure that your sitemap file has the correct XML header:

      Also, check for any white spaces before the XML declaration in your files.

    4. Google OAuth Tokens: If you’re experiencing issues with expired Google OAuth tokens, you may need to re-authenticate your Google account within Rank Math to ensure that analytics data is being pulled correctly.

    Content AI Issues

    Regarding the Content AI Creator generating repetitive or poorly written content, this can sometimes happen if the input prompts are not specific enough. Try providing more detailed instructions or context for the content you want generated.
