    Hello Rank Math Support,

    I’m writing to report an issue with my video sitemap. When I enabled the video sitemap feature on my website, I noticed that only 33 URLs are generated and displayed in the sitemap, when I actually have around 4,400 videos on my site.

    My video sitemap URL: https://inspenet.com/

    Video player used: FVPlayer

    Error/Observed behavior: The sitemap only includes 33 videos, instead of the 4,400 videos on the site.

    Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with your video sitemap. It seems that the low number of URLs detected could be due to several factors. Here are a few things you can check:

    1. Post Types: Ensure that the post types where your videos are embedded are selected in the Video Sitemap settings. You can configure this under WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → Sitemap Settings → Video Sitemap.

    2. Caching Issues: Sometimes, caching can prevent the sitemap from updating correctly. You might want to refer to our guide on excluding sitemaps from caching to ensure that your video sitemap is not being cached improperly.

    3. Video Detection: Make sure that Rank Math is able to detect the videos in your posts. If the videos are embedded in a way that Rank Math does not recognize, they may not be included in the sitemap.

    4. Custom Fields: If you are using custom fields to store video data, ensure that you have configured Rank Math to scan those fields as well.

    If you’ve checked all these settings and still face issues, please reply to this ticket with more details about how your videos are embedded or any specific configurations you have set up. A human agent from our support team will then assist you further.

    Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention!
