blank sitemap

    Hello Rank Math,
    I’ve been notified by Google Search Console that my sitemap is marked as “noindex”. When I pull up the page it’s white and the source code looks like in the screen shot below. I’ve followed your guidelines but it doesn’t say what to do with the source code info. I don’t believe the problem is caused by another plugin.
    I appreciate your help,
    Best regards,
    Nina

    Hello,

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

    The sitemaps are set to noindex as you do not want them to appear in the search results.

    The screenshot you shared is not opening on our end, can you please share the screenshot again?

    As your sitemap is blank, 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:

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