Rank Math SEO plugin now supports the new WordPress editor

The team behind the Rank Math SEO plugin released an update that includes full support for the new WordPress editor on December 18. The update includes about twenty features, improvements, and fixes, the largest feature update being the inclusion of a new sidebar for the Block Editor plugin. Some of the new features include a filter for unlimited focus keywords, an email notification every time the plugin is automatically updated, and a warning when a review schema type is used.

It also improved compatibility with the Elementor plugin's sitemap module and added Advanced Custom Fields integration to the sidebar. A full list of features is available in the plugin's public changelog. The team has a public demo available for end users to test the plugin without having to install it on their sites. Over the past months, the team has worked on learning various programming languages ​​and new technologies, including React, Webpack, and ES6, in order to develop the add-on and make it more compatible with the new editor.

Based on this update, Rank Math SEO has been added to the side menu, while most of the SEO add-ons and other components are available at the bottom of the editor on the page. After activating the extension and getting the new update, you will notice the SEO result at the top of the side menu, and it has taken the old place of the Publish, Preview, and Save as Draft buttons. On the other hand, in the side menu, the add-on settings for the article or content appear and are in a prominent place, but we noticed that a number of users are not happy with the changes in this update and prefer that the add-on be at the bottom of the editor.
