Problem with site map

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with your sitemap. It seems like there might be a conflict or a configuration issue causing the blank page and the stylesheet error.

Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:

1. Check the Source Code: First, check the source code of your sitemap page. If the source code is empty, it may indicate a conflict with another plugin or theme. You can use the Health Check plugin to identify any conflicts.

2. Flush Sitemap Cache: If there is data in the source code but it still shows a blank page, try flushing the sitemap cache and ensure that your sitemap is excluded from caching plugins. You can find more details on how to do this in our documentation.

3. Check for Static Files: Ensure that there are no static files named sitemap_index.xml on your server that could be conflicting with Rank Math’s dynamic sitemap generation. You can check this via FTP.

4. Validate Your Sitemap: Use the Validate XML Sitemap tool to confirm that your sitemap is correctly configured. This can help identify any issues with the sitemap structure.
   

5. Ensure Posts Are Set to Index: Make sure that your posts are set to index. If all posts are set to noindex, your sitemap will appear empty. You can check this in Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta settings.
   

6. Check Server Configuration: If you are using Apache or Nginx, ensure that the appropriate rewrite rules are added to your .htaccess or Nginx config file, respectively. This is crucial for the proper functioning of the sitemap.

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

Thank you for raising this concern, and we hope to help you resolve it soon!

Hello,

We’re unable to check your site as your security firewall is blocking it.

If you are using geo-blocking, please temporarily unblock the country Portugal, India, Nigeria, Bangladesh, and the Philippines so we can further inspect your website.

Or you can share any whitelisted country name so that we can set this on VPN.

Meanwhile, assuming you are using the latest version of all the plugins and the themes (please update if not yet), this can be caused by a conflicting plugin/theme with Rank Math.

To determine that, please follow this troubleshooting guide:

Only the site admin would know and your users won’t be affected by this troubleshooting.

Looking forward to helping you.
