    Hello,
    I recently logged into my site to make some changes to a blog post and noticed that the Rank Math options to optimize for SEO are no longer present on the blog post. The plugin is certainly active, and I have all the other features in other parts of the admin. I also see all the SEO meta tags on previous posts. I just dont see the button to open the Rank Math SEO options from within the post editing screen.

    Any thoughts on this?

    Hello @stegosource

    Thank you for contacting the support.

    If you are using Gutenberg, the Rank Math section has moved to the sidebar: https://i.rankmath.com/ZO21Cd

    You need to click on the score for the metabox to appear.

    If for any reason, you prefer the older design, you can achieve that by adding the following filter to your theme’s functions.php file:

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

    Hey, first of all, thank you for the support. I realize now I should have been more clear.

    I did read through the “READ FIRST” sticky post, and my issue is not as you describe above. I do use Gutenberg, but I already knew where to find the SEO stuff by clicking the score (and also in the triple dot more options).

    The issue Im having is that the score does not appear anywhere in the editor. I’ve tried deactivating all plugins except RM, and switching to the default theme.

    The only other solution I can think of is to reinstall the plugin

    Hello @stegosource

    Sorry for the confusion.

    Can you reinstall WordPress again?

    Please let us know if that helped.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
