    Great plugin, BUT… this is the second time in short period that the plugin gives us Malware. This is not good for our business. A client clicked on a link in our website and was forwarded to an Malware site. When i turn off this plugin its fixt. Turn it back on, and the malware is back. A few months ago was dit also a big problem.

    Hello @harmaddeo

    Thank you for contacting the support and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Which version of the plugin were you using?

    We do not know of any security issues in the plugin ever since one happened back in March 2019.

    Also, please contact us if you need any further assistance:

    Hello @harmaddeo

    Can you please share more information on how you deduced that it was the Rank Math plugin that was affected?

    The Rank Math plugin has a redirection plugin. There is a very high possibility that some other plugin was compromised and the person simply created a redirection using the Rank Math plugin instead of installing a new plugin.

    Did you check the server logs and the error logs?

    Please share them with us so we can help you get to the bottom of it.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
