Hi there,

I am using Rank Math with WMPL to generate sitemaps for my sites.
So far everything is working well.
Sitemaps have been created separately per post types.
But for each post types, the urls for all languages can be found.

Is there a way to create a separation for each language.
Ex: /post-sitemap.xml will have one sub sitemap for each languages.

Thanks a lot

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your sitemap structure with Rank Math and WPML. I understand that you are looking to have separate sub-sitemaps for each language within the main sitemap for each post type.

Currently, Rank Math automatically creates a sitemap of all your posts, including translated posts/pages. The translated pages are automatically added to your sitemap index available at domain.com/sitemap_index.xml. Each translated post/page is included in the main sitemap without language-specific sub-sitemaps.

If you wish to have separate sub-sitemaps for each language within the main sitemap for each post type, this specific customization is not available within Rank Math’s current features. The sitemap structure includes all languages in the main sitemap index.

If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please feel free to ask. Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards.

Great thanks for you answer!

Just in case, do you know if it is possible to hook into the sitemap creation and customize it?
I know this that this kind of customizaiton will not be supported but you might point me in the direction of the right filter and action hooks to use.

Thanks a lot
