Hello @rinart73,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math support and bringing your concern to our attention.
Can you please confirm if other pages or post types’ meta title is translated just fine by Polylang? We need to check if the issue is only happening on your 404 page and not the rest of the pages.
Looking forward to helping you.
Post title translation works fine.
“tax_post_tag_title” and “tax_itinerary_tag_title”, which I assume works as a title structure for post and my custom post types (I created Itinerary Tag via CPTUI) taxonomy pages, don’t get translated either. I just didn’t notice that because all my varians are set to “%term% %sep% %sitename%”. So basically the name itself is translated. But not the structure that is set in the Strings translation.
And it seems that “search_title” doesn’t get translated either.

I tried on clean WordPress install. Theme: Kadence. Plugins: Polylang and Rank Math SEO. 404 title still doesn’t get translated.
Hello @rinart73
You would need to bring this up with the support of that plugin.
We have an open code request for adding the compatibility, but that is still pending for years:
https://github.com/polylang/polylang/pull/373
Sorry to disappoint but thus is not in our hands.
You can check all the compatible translation plugins on this page:
https://rankmath.com/compatibility/
If there’s anything else we can help you with, please let us know.
I don’t really understand how page 404 title is related to Sitemap.
Hello @rinart73
It is about the overall compatibility with their plugin.
A sitemap is one of the biggest incompatibilities along with others, as pointed out by you (404 pages).
Sorry to disappoint, but there is not much we can do here.
Please let us know if you need assistance with anything else. We are here to help.
UPDATE: In case anyone needs it, the following code will make certain Rank Math SEO options properly translateable via the Strings tab in Polylang.
/*
* Translate Rank Math SEO settings
*/
$my_theme_translateable_rank_math_options = [
'img_alt_format',
'img_title_format',

function my_theme_translate_rank_math_seo_options($arr, $name) {

if(is_admin() or !function_exists('pll__')) {
return $arr;
}
foreach($my_theme_translateable_rank_math_options as $option) {
if(isset($arr[$option])) {
$arr[$option] = pll__($arr[$option]);
}
}
return $arr;
}
/*

*/
add_action('init', function() {
if(!is_admin() and function_exists('pll__')) {
rank_math()->settings->reset();
}
});
