Sitemap issue

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with your sitemap not updating automatically when you publish new content. Thank you for raising this concern.

Since you are using NGINX, it’s important to ensure that your sitemap settings are correctly configured. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

1. Flush Permalinks: Sometimes, flushing permalinks can help resolve sitemap issues. You can do this by navigating to WordPress Dashboard → Settings → Permalinks and clicking the Save Changes button without making any changes.
   

2. Disable Transient Caching: If you haven’t already done so, you can add the following filter to your theme’s rank-math.php file to disable transient caching of your sitemap:

   add_filter( 'rank_math/sitemap/enable_caching', '__return_false');

3. Check for Plugin Conflicts: Ensure that there are no conflicting plugins that might be affecting the sitemap functionality. You can use the Health Check plugin to help identify any conflicts.

4. Review NGINX Configuration: Make sure your NGINX configuration is set up correctly for handling sitemaps. You can refer to our guide on XML Sitemaps on NGINX Servers for more details.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

Thank you for your patience, and we hope to help you resolve this issue soon!
