dear staff here my sitemap https://beautiqline.it/sitemap_index.xml

the link are short,
but if you open a product for example https://beautiqline.it/scrub-viso-esfoliante-in-gel-250ml/ reported in the sitemap, the site shows the product but should be in the sitemap https://beautiqline.it/cosmetici/viso/scrub-viso-esfoliante-in-gel-250ml/ , and also if you open the link https://beautiqline.it/scrub-viso-esfoliante-in-gel-250ml/ it should take you to the right link https://beautiqline.it/cosmetici/viso/scrub-viso-esfoliante-in-gel-250ml/why?

Hello,
I understand your concern about the product link in the sitemap showing a shorter URL instead of the correct one on the website. This issue might occur due to various reasons, such as how the URLs are generated or if there are multiple ways to access the same product page.
To ensure that the correct URL is displayed in the sitemap for your products, you can utilize the canonical tag feature provided by Rank Math. The canonical tag helps specify the preferred URL for a page, indicating to search engines like Google which version of the URL should be considered the primary one.
By setting the canonical URL within Rank Math, you can guide search engines to index and display the correct URL for your products. Here is an example of how you can set the canonical URL in Rank Math:
In this image, you can see where you can set the canonical URL within Rank Math’s settings. By ensuring that the canonical URL is correctly configured, you can address the issue of the product link showing a shorter URL in the sitemap.
If you encounter any difficulties or need further assistance with setting up the canonical URL for your products in Rank Math, feel free to provide more details or screenshots, and we’ll be happy to assist you further.
Thank you for raising this concern, and we appreciate your attention to optimizing your sitemap for better SEO practices.
Warm regards.
