Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Can you please follow these steps?
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:
https://i.rankmath.com/pipRDp
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/
That should fix the issue. Please let me know if that does not. We are here to assist.
1. Flushing cache didn’t do anything.
2. I am not using any caching plugin. I am usinh Cloudflare but since I can see page and category sitemaps fine i don’t think it’s caching it.
But anyway i will add the page rules? I need to add an URL in Cloudflare. So how do I add these lines? Do I add my site URL before them? Will appreciate any help with this.
sitemap?\.xml?
[a-z0-9_\-]*sitemap[a-z0-9_\-]*\xml|xsl)?
([az0-9_\-]*?)sitemap([a-z0-9_\-]*)?.xml
I disabled the ‘images in sitemap’ in Rankmath and now I can see URLs in sitemap.
But is that the right thing to do – removing images from sitemap?
What impact it can have n SEO?

Hello,
We are glad that this issue is already resolved.
Here are the steps that my colleague did to determine the issue:
1. Check your sitemap using the XML Validator tool.
2. If you have noticed the same error message upon checking, open your sitemap and view the page’s source code to find the faulty line/URL.
I hope that helps.
