Conflict between Rank Math and WooCommerce

    There is a conflict between Rank Math and WooCommerce. I switched to Troubleshooting Mode and started activating each plugin one by one to figure out which one is conflicting with Rank Math. The result is as follows – the issue arises when WooCommerce is activated. With all other plugins activated, there is no problem. When WooCommerce is deactivated, the problem appears and disappears accordingly. Even when only using the two extensions, Rank Math and WooCommerce, and with all others deactivated, the conflict persists. Everything was working fine until one of the recent updates. How can I resolve this issue? The site cannot function properly without WooCommerce, and I don’t want to part with Rank Math.
    I have reported this to Rank Math, and they recommended that I reach out to the WooCommerce support team, as WooCommerce is causing a conflict with Rank Math. Please assist me.

  • 1. Ensure Everything is Up-to-Date

    First, ensure that both WooCommerce and Rank Math, along with your theme and other plugins, are updated to their latest versions. Sometimes, compatibility issues are resolved in the latest updates. Especially if your theme has a CORE update. This is very common.

    2. Check Theme Compatibility

    Switch to a default WordPress theme (like Twenty Twenty-One) temporarily to rule out any theme-related conflicts. If the issue resolves, the problem might be with the theme’s compatibility/hooks with either WooCommerce or Rank Math.

    3. Enable WordPress Debugging

    Enabling WP_DEBUG can help identify any specific errors that occur when both plugins are active. Add the following code to your wp-config.php file and then post the results in this thread:

    define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false );

    After adding this, try to reproduce the issue by activating both plugins. Then, check the wp-content/debug.log file for any relevant error messages and paste them here if you can’t figure it out.

    4. Check for JavaScript Errors

    Use your browser’s developer tools to check for JavaScript errors in the console when both plugins are activated. JavaScript issues can often lead to functionality problems in WordPress admin. Post those here, as well (if any).

    As a last resort, if the issue significantly impacts your site and a timely fix isn’t available, consider temporarily using an alternative SEO plugin until the conflict is resolved.
