    Hi Osman,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us.

    ​1. Please delete the sitemaps from the Google Search Console.

    ​2. Clear your website cache and add sitemap_index.xml and *-sitemap.xml to the exclusion list in your Cache plugin.

    ​3. Add sitemap_index.xml file again to your Google Search Console.

    ​That should do the trick.

    ​Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    I did that and sitemaps are updating… But pages exclude problem is still there i dont want to index password reset etc pages.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    Could you please set these pages to noindex and then check if the issue will be resolved? If they already are set to noindex then you don’t need to worry about this since the search engine will remove the pages from the cache the next time your site is crawled.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Now i set them to noindex too… Still search console sitemap shows them.
    Ok, as you said they will remove them i’ll have to wait.
