Checkout Sitemap returning 404

    Hi there,

    I’m having some trouble with my sales form Google Shopping and Search campaigns. I recently changed the permalink of my checkout page, and I’m wondering if that is causing the problem? I’ve just been checking the sitemap on Rankmath, and my checkout sitemap is returning a 404. Is that right? Do I need to change the url for the checkout sitemap?

    Thanks, Richard.

    Hello,

    Thanks for contacting us and we regret the inconvenience caused.

    I checked your sitemaps and the sitemaps are loading properly.

    However, I was unable to find any checkout sitemap. Is this sitemap generated using Rank Math?

    Could you please share the URL of the checkout sitemap so that we can have a closer look at the issue?

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.

    Hi there,

    Thanks for your reply and your help 🙂 This is the url I have for the checkout sitemap:

    https://www.cornishseaweedbath.co.uk/wfacp_checkout-sitemap.xml

    I also have 2 Thank you page sitemap urls:

    https://www.cornishseaweedbath.co.uk/wffn_ty-sitemap.xml
    https://www.cornishseaweedbath.co.uk/thank_you-sitemap.xml

    Should they be sitemapped too? They also return 404s. I actually only have 1 thank you page set up at the moment, which I think is the 2nd one (I haven’t created the wffn thank you page yet).

    I also have this notification, since installing woofunnels:

    Rank Math has detected new post types: wffn_landing, wffn_ty, wffn_optin, wffn_oty, wfacp_checkout, wfocu_offer. You may want to check the settings of the Titles & Meta page and the Sitemap.

    Could you tell me what I need to do with those?

    Thanks 🙂 Richard.

    Hello,

    Rank Math adds the sub-sitemaps to the sitmeap index when there are any published posts in the post types, also the posts need to be set to index to appear in the sitemaps.

    Please publish some posts in these posts type and check the sitemap.

    Also, please follow these steps to automatically update the sitemaps:
    1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:

    2. Exclude the Sitemap files of the Rank Math plugin in your caching plugin. The cache could be via a plugin or from the server. For plugins or Cloudflare, please follow this article:
    https://rankmath.com/kb/exclude-sitemaps-from-caching/

    Rank Math displays a notification whenever it detects a new post type, you are seeing that notification because woofunnels added some new post types to your website. You can simply click on the x button to get rid of the notification.

    I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.
