If your sitemap is garbled, it could be due to several reasons. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

Check for Errors: Ensure that there are no errors in your sitemap. You can validate your sitemap using online tools to check for any XML formatting issues.

Server Configuration: If you are using an Apache or Nginx server, you may need to add specific rewrite rules to your server configuration.

For Apache, add the following code to your .htaccess file:
# START of Rank Math Sitemap Rewrite Rules
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 L
RewriteRule ^([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 L
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)?-?sitemap.xsl$ /index.php?xsl=$1 L
# END of Rank Math Sitemap Rewrite Rules

Clear Cache: If you are using a caching plugin, clear the cache and regenerate the sitemap.

Review Google Search Console: Check Google Search Console for any specific errors related to your sitemap that might give you more insight into the problem.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, you may want to open a support ticket for further assistance: Rank Math Support.

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with your sitemap being garbled. Since you’ve already attempted several fixes, let’s go through some additional troubleshooting steps that may help resolve the problem:
1. Validate Your Sitemap: Use an online XML sitemap validator to check for any formatting errors in your sitemap. This can help identify specific issues that need to be addressed.
2. Server Configuration: Since you mentioned using a server, ensure that the correct rewrite rules are in place. For Apache servers, you can add the following code to your .htaccess file:
```
# START of Rank Math Sitemap Rewrite Rules
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 [L]
RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)?-?sitemap.xsl$ /index.php?xsl=$1 [L]
# END of Rank Math Sitemap Rewrite Rules
```
  If you are using Nginx, the rules would be:
```
# START Nginx Rewrites for Rank Math Sitemaps
rewrite ^/sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 last;
rewrite ^/([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 last;
rewrite ^/([a-z]+)?-sitemap.xsl$ /index.php?xsl=$1 last;
# END Nginx Rewrites for Rank Math Sitemaps
```
3. Clear Cache: If you are using a caching plugin, make sure to clear the cache and regenerate your sitemap after making any changes.
4. Check Google Search Console: Review any specific errors related to your sitemap in Google Search Console, as it may provide insights into what is causing the issue.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket with any error messages or additional details you may have, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further. Thank you for your patience!
