Google Search Console has a bug with its date picker, if you need to examine two date ranges. It appears to default to the final month of information typically, not all. Google’s John Mueller will escalate the difficulty to the crew and hopefully will probably be mounted quickly (or by the point that is printed).

Anybody else expertise a GSC bug in the present day the place it should solely allow you to take a look at the Efficiency tab with the final month in comparison with the month prior? I hold deciding on a time interval and it redirects me to that. Actually annoying!
Tory Grey posted a screenshot displaying how Google Search Console can present the identical information for the final 6 months because it reveals for the final 16 months. He wrote on Bluesky:
This was taking place to me final week – however no redirect. Something > 3 months would graph the identical information and metrics – however on the opposite URLs (like 6 months, for instance.) Extremely complicated!
Oh – and including a filter (for a web page sort, on this instance) inflated the impressions/clicks like 4x. Bizarre.
No solutions. It is nonetheless taking place!
I can replicate in Incognito, and

replicated from her gadget.Not taking place with all accounts, just a few.
We’re making an attempt to make use of the API as a workaround?
I can verify that the URLs aren’t redirecting (e.g. these are from &num_of_months=6 v =16
Right here is his screenshot:
John Mueller from Google replied, “I am going to verify with the crew – sorry concerning the confusion there.”
I assume this shall be mounted soonish?
Replace – this can be mounted or perhaps simply mounted for me?
Discussion board dialogue at Bluesky.
Replace: It appears Google rolled out a new date picker and 24-hour view in the present day.
