Sitemap.xml Not updating & Cron unschedule event error for hook

    My website is reelactivities.com and when I check my log I see: Cron unschedule event error for hook: rank_math/content-ai/update_plan, Error code: could_not_set, Error message: The cron event list could not be saved., Data: {“schedule”:false,”args”:[]}
    Additionally, when I view my sitemap I only see 4 posts, however I have more than 4 posts I have 18. I have cleared the cache, refreshed permalinks, disabled and re-enabled the sitemap tool within rankmath and verified that they are indexed. However, after all of this I cannot resolve the issue.

  • Hello,

    I apologize for the issue you are facing with your sitemap and the cron unschedule event error. It sounds like you’ve already taken several important steps to troubleshoot the problem, such as clearing the cache and refreshing permalinks.

    Here are a few additional steps you can try to resolve the sitemap issue:

    1. Check Your Sitemap Settings: Ensure that all your posts are set to be included in the sitemap. Go to Rank Math SEO → Sitemap Settings and verify that the option to include posts is enabled for all relevant post types.

    2. Validate Your Sitemap: Use the Validate XML Sitemap tool to check if your sitemap is correctly configured. This can help identify any issues with the sitemap structure.

    3. Check for Plugin Conflicts: Sometimes, other plugins can interfere with Rank Math’s functionality. You can use the Health Check plugin to check for conflicts without affecting your live site.

    4. Ensure Posts Are Set to Index: Make sure that your posts are not set to "noindex". You can check this in Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta under the Robots Meta settings.

    5. Cron Jobs: The error regarding the cron job might indicate an issue with your server’s cron system. You may want to check with your hosting provider to ensure that cron jobs are functioning correctly on your server.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, we recommend replying to this ticket with any additional details or errors you encounter, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for raising this concern, and we hope to help you get this resolved soon!

    I fixed the Cron Jobs issue, however and installed Health Check plugin but my sitemap is still only showing 4 psots.
