    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused

    Can you please follow these steps?
    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:

    Once done, remove all the sitemaps from the Search Console and add sitemap_index.xml and wait for Google to recrawl the sitemap.

    That should fix the issue. Please let me know if that does not. We are here to assist.
