  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    We checked your sitemap and we can see it is working properly without any issues.

    In this case, please try to follow the steps below and see if that works for you:

    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/

    Once done, clear your website cache, remove all the submitted sitemap, and resubmit only the /sitemap_index.xml in the Search Console.

    However, it looks like you’re currently using the Rank Math PRO plugin on your website, but the account you have used to open this ticket is the Rank Math free version.

    Please search and forward a receipt from FastSpring.com so we can locate your account and verify it.

    Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.

    Thank you.
