RankMath does not detect h1 h2 h3 in posts and pages.

RankMath does not detect h1 h2 h3 in posts and pages.
——————————————————
I utilize woodmart and consequently WP Bakery but Rank Math is unable to read the content correctly.
The problem is that Rank Math does not detect for SEO h1 h2 h3 in posts and pages.

This is a guide suggested for you by RankMath with the developers of Woodmart: https://rankmath.com/kb/content-analysis-api/.

Can you help me solve the problem
Thank you

Hello,

Could you please check how it works with some default WordPress themes like TwentyTwenty-Four or WooCommerce Storefront to understand if it is our theme issue or not?

Kind Regards

Hello Luke
I have made a new installation on one of my test sites just to give you the opportunity to check and fix the issue. This way, you can run your tests without causing any damage to the main site. Let me know if there are any changes to apply to my primary site.
Best regards,
Antonio

Hello,

So on the default Storefront theme it works well? Please clarify.

Thank you for your time.

Kind Regards

I have sent you a test installation with the passwords so you can solve the problem safely. It does not work on the website marinigerardi.it and it does not work on the test site.
Could you try to solve the problem and then tell me what to change on marinigerardi.it?
Thank you,
Antonio

Hello,

Currently, I see that the analyzer cannot find only the h1 tag – https://take.ms/LjduXf so you can define it in our Section title element here – https://take.ms/3JhY9

Let me know if you use another analyzer in rank math SEO so I can test it.

Thank you for your time.

Kind Regards

I have activated a test installation so that you can work and solve the problem.

1 – On the Home page: (Home Minimalism – Featured Products) – SEO keyword “Featured Products,” but h1 h2 h3 h4 are not detected; 2 – On the post page (Exploring Atlanta’s modern homes) – SEO keyword “modern homes,” but h1 h2 h3 h4 are not detected; 3 – On the product page (Henectus tincidunt) – SEO keyword “Henectus tincidunt,” everything works perfectly.

Summary: h2 h3 h4 are only not detected on pages and posts. I hope I have been clear.

Kind Regards Antonio

Hello,

Here are detected h2 headings (featured products) – https://take.ms/LjKO6

Clarify, how you checked the post page as there defined only the home page – https://take.ms/8qpE9. In general, the post page comes from WordPress itself so if the issue persists there, the same should be in the default theme so make sure that the plugin is configured as per their documentation. Send me a video of how you detect those issues so I can investigate the same on the default theme because I cannot change here https://take.ms/wdmqe the link.

Looking forward to collaborating with you!

Kind Regards

Hello Luke

“If you analyze the website with external software, it will clearly give positive feedback because I know the SEO rules and I apply them. The problem is that I don’t see the results of proper Rank Math SEO usage in the backend, and this is due to a misconfiguration in Woodmart, which is otherwise an exceptional template. I can’t understand why it works perfectly for products but doesn’t read h2, h3, and h4 in posts and pages.
Thank you for your cooperation,
Antonio”

Hello,

Please send us a video of how can we reproduce the issue step-by-step. We will check this issue on your website and try to help if it is caused by WoodMart.

Kind Regards

Good morning – I still haven’t resolved the issue with Rank Math SEO not detecting subtitles like H2, H3, and H4 in posts and pages! The problem is caused by WoodMart, as everything works perfectly when using Enfold on another site. Could you resolve the issue? Has anyone else encountered the same problem? Thank you, Antonio.

Hello,

We are still waiting for the video requested in our previous reply https://xtemos.com/forums/topic/rankmath-does-not-detect-h1-h2-h3-in-posts-and-pages/#post-599273

Kind Regards

“Dear friend, there is no video I can show you!
It’s very simple: I am attaching 3 files:
#1 WooCommerce product page that detects H2, H3, and H4 perfectly;
#2 The page does not detect H2, H3, H4;
#3 The posts do not detect H2, H3, H4.

The program, as you know well, automatically detects these parameters, but with Woodmart, it doesn’t work on pages and posts.

With Enfold, it works perfectly.

Can you try to understand why?

Thank you.”

Hello,

But it doesn’t work on the default theme using WP Bakery’s default title element – https://take.ms/HrN4h, did you try to use the default title element and check how it works on the default theme? As you can see, it doesn’t work on the default theme either.

I await your response.

Kind Regards

Hello
You have been able to verify that it does not work even if I still use “Section Title” of WPBakery Page Builder: How can we solve the problem since “WoodMart” is your software?
Antonio

Hello,

The theme is our software but the page builder and its elements (default) are not related to our theme. So to understand whether the issue is with our theme or not we have tested the issue with the default title element from WPB, and there is the same issue.

It would be better to check the issue on the default theme like WooCommerce Storefront, could you please try to define the focus keyword using rank math SEO + WooCommerce Storefront? So in such a way, we can check whether the issue in our theme or not.

Looking forward to collaborating with you!

Kind Regards

i have tested the following things and it is definitely a problem between wpbakery and rank math. rank math apparently cannot read the headings h2, h3, h4,…. from the section title elements of wpbakery. from the section title elements.
the question now is, who can solve the problem, because i have the same?
– woodmart
– wpbakery
– rank maths
… developer?
did you already solve it?

Hello,

In this case, I suggest you contact the Math rank SEO support team and ask them to investigate it from their side as this is their functionality.

I await your response.

Kind Regards

i tried to open a ticket via wpbakery, but since we use the licence from woodmart, unfortunately only the theme creator can solve the problem with wpbakery.

according to my research, it seems to be a problem that has still not been solved, where rankmath, wpbakery and woodmart are always pushing the solution of the problem to each other. but since you from woodmart have always found a workaround in development so far, your support or help in cooperation with wpbakery would be very great. that’s why i’m asking you.

I am referring to the same problem as described under this link: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/focus-keyword-not-found-in-subheadings-like-h2-h3-h4-etc/

I have already done all the tests and found out where the problem is, which could be solved by wpbakery or woodmart as supporter for wpbakery within the theme. the problem are the headline elements of wpbakery pagebuilder.

rankmath cannot identify subheadings h2,h3,… for headlines created with wpbakery pagebuilder title elements. This means that both the seo analysis “focus Keyword in Subheading (Primary and Secondary Focus Keywords)” shows an incorrect result and the TOC (table of contents) function does not work.

I then tried the whole thing with the gutenberg editor and there are no problems. both the focus keywords in the subheadings were recognised and the TOC works.
can you please fix this bug or write me a short term solution how I can solve this, because i have built all my blog posts and sites with wpbakery in woodmart.

here you can see the difference in the code between headlines with wpbakery and gutenberg:

this is exactly the problem: rankmath provides instructions for theme developers on how to prepare the data for compatibility.

please take a look at the topic, otherwise everyone will blame everyone else. i already had a support ticket with rank math.

or you as a theme developer write together with rank math who has to do what.
thanks

does the link from before with the instructions from rankmath help you? Does this make sense?

here ist the link to the github from the site before:
https://github.com/rankmath/seo-by-rank-math/blob/master/assets/admin/src/custom-fields.js

please can you communicate with your wpbakery support, if this is necessary.

Hello,

We tried to figure it out but we can’t find what the problem is. Please contact the Rank Math Seo, if they give some instructions, we will try to help implement it.

I await your response.

Kind Regards

ok thanks,
i will ask rankmath support for help on what you need to adjust.
thanks

Hello,

Great! I will wait for your response.

Thank you for your time and patience.

Kind Regards

Thanks for waiting.
I have received feedback from Rank Math and have already tested whether the feedback is correct. Unfortunately they are right and the issue can only be solved by Woodmart developers.

This was the answer:
Our plugin can read the data from the default WP Bakery elements. It seems like your theme is using theme-specific elements and that’s why our plugin isn’t able to read the content correctly. You will have to ask your theme’s developers to follow this guide and integrate our content analysis API in to their theme to make the content from theme-specific elements readable: https://rankmath.com/kb/content-analysis-api/

my test:
I deactivated the woodmart theme and only let wpbakery and rank math run. then there was only a standard title element from wpbakery which I tested. and lo and behold, it worked (picture attached)
rank math cannot read the h2, h3,…. from the woodmart title element. and your developers would have to adapt the title element so that it is readable for rankmath:
here are the instructions from rank math for your developers: https://rankmath.com/kb/content-analysis-api/

additional info: i have already tested the fourth TOC (table of contents) plugin and all of them have a problem with identifying the headlines of woodmart. the woodmart title element may have a complex structure, so that third-party plugins seem to have problems with all functions and features that require the headlines to be read. wpbakery headlines and gutenberg headlines work with all TOC plugins and also with rankmath.
can you please take a look at this, because it certainly affects many customers, as rankmath is a widely used solution.

Hello,

Add the code below to the functions.php file in the child theme and recheck the issue.
