Hello,
The message only appears at the bottom of the thumbnail set when I debug the site or set define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); in the configuration.

You can see the message in the image here: link to image.

However, when I change the setting to define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );, the message no longer appears.

All settings are using the default configurations. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Robert

Hello Ankush,

Thank you for a wonderful reply. Your plugin to me is one of the best and I truly am grateful for your programming expertise in creating a beautiful plugin. Thank you again for your attention to my concern and I must say the most recent update did not need the Permalinks flush fix, it just worked excellent.

Thank you to Jason Ryan (@viablethought) for the correct way to remedy this – which should have not happened in the first place.

Go to Wordfence -> All Options -> Advanced Firewall Options -> Manually Refresh Rules and then run a new Scan

From the shell you could do this:

Navigated to the site that had the issue:

cd /var/www/yourwebsite.com/public_html/wp-includes/blocks/block/

From there just enter in the command below and all files that needed to be removed will be removed:

rm -rf editor.css editor.min.css editor-rtl.css editor-rtl .min.css

From Wordfence dashboard:

Just click on the file and there should be a DELETE FILE button just press it.

I work in my shell so I do the shell route to make sure they are really deleted.

Regards.

Hello,

I added code to your theme’s functions.php and followed your instructions and deactivated and deleted the plugin but it still left residual code from your plugin in my DB.

How am I am suppose to remove that – that was my last question. It still leaves code in the wp_options table.

And what happened to this post – where are my replies?

Thanks Jan.

Hi Jan,

How do I edit the message so I can include the pastebin link?

Hello,

Thank you for replying back to me and your great support!

This is the SQL I ran, I replaced my DB name with MYDB for security purposes:

SELECT*FROMMYDB.wp_optionsWHERE(CONVERT(option_idUSING utf8)LIKE'%rank_math%'ORCONVERT(option_nameUSING utf8)LIKE'%rank_math%'ORCONVERT(option_valueUSING utf8)LIKE'%rank_math%'ORCONVERT(autoloadUSING utf8)LIKE'%rank_math%')

And it showed 2 matches in wp_options table under the option name of wp_user_roles and all my admin privileges are in that table also. So when you said it was okay I deleted that table. I had a DB backup but how do I remove the entries in the wp_options table?

This is what it looks like below:

b:1;s:23:”rank_math_edit_htaccess”;b:1;s:12:

It has numbers before it and after it and I am not certain what should be removed since there are other entries in there for other plugins.

There is also an entry under the option name called recently activated:

s:30:”seo-by-rank-math/rank-math.php”;

So I don’t know what to remove since there are other entries in there and I do not want to mess that up.

Could you help?

Hello,

Thank you again for your time and reply but when I removed them I lost my admin privileges and access to the back end to my site and I had no ability to get to the back end of WordPress, I was only able to work at the front end of WordPress.

I ran a SQL to find all rank math entries and when deleted that was when II lost access. So tell me where in your code you have the ability to have this happen when removing entries related to your plugin.

So it is not safe to remove these entries.

Any suggestions since this is not a good thing.
