[Resolved] Guidance Request: Migrating from Yoast SEO to Rank Math with WPML Compatibility

Problem:
The client is planning to migrate their WordPress site from Yoast SEO to Rank Math and wants to ensure full compatibility with WPML to avoid disruptions to their multilingual content. They are using WooCommerce Multilingual for product translations and have enabled Compatibility Mode in Rank Math for WPML. They are concerned about potential conflicts during the migration and how to handle database settings and SEO metadata.
Solution:
We recommend keeping WPML plugins activated during the migration to avoid conflicts. There is no need to manually back up or preserve specific database tables or settings tied to WPML/Yoast integration, as our WPML SEO addon supports both Yoast SEO and Rank Math SEO. This addon will help you translate SEO data from both plugins seamlessly. Post-migration, it is not necessary to re-synchronize translations for product variations and SEO metadata, as WPML handles these automatically. There are no known conflicts between Rank Math and WPML's multilingual SEO features that require adjustments. However, we recommend consulting the Rank Math support team for specific migration steps from Yoast to Rank Math.
