Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with your sitemap. It seems that the sitemap generated by the Rank Math plugin is not functioning correctly, which can indeed affect the indexing of your product links.
Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially fix the issue:
-
Check if the Sitemap Loads: First, ensure that your sitemap URL is accessible. You can do this by visiting `https://rankmath.com/kb/fix-sitemap-issues/#sitemap-blocked-robots-txt in your browser. If it shows a blank page or an error, we need to investigate further.
-
Validate Your Sitemap: Use the Validate XML Sitemap tool to check if your sitemap is correctly configured. This tool will help identify any issues with the sitemap structure.
-
Ensure Posts Are Set to Index: Make sure that your products are set to index. Go to Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta and check the Robots Meta settings. Ensure that the Index checkbox is enabled for your product posts.
-
Check Server Configuration: If you are using an Apache or Nginx server, ensure that the appropriate rewrite rules are added to your server configuration as mentioned in our documentation:
- For Apache:
# START of Rank Math Sitemap Rewrite Rules RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 [L] RewriteRule ^([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 [L] RewriteRule ^([a-z]+)?-?sitemap.xsl$ /index.php?xsl=$1 [L] # END of Rank Math Sitemap Rewrite Rules
- For Nginx:
# START Nginx Rewrites for Rank Math Sitemaps rewrite ^/sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 last; rewrite ^/([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 last; rewrite ^/([a-z]+)?-sitemap.xsl$ /index.php?xsl=$1 last; # END Nginx Rewrites for Rank Math Sitemaps
- For Apache:

Check for Plugin Conflicts: Sometimes, other plugins can conflict with Rank Math. You can use the Health Check plugin to identify any potential conflicts.

Hello,
From the error log you shared, it appears the issue might be PHP memory-related.
Please check the PHP values of your site by going to WordPress dashboard > Tools > Site Health > Info tab > Server. These values affect the performance of your site and they should be set atleast to the following recommendations:
PHP Memory Limit: 512M Max input time: 150 PHP time limit: 120 PHP max input variables: 1000
If any of these values are lower than the recommended ones, please contact your hosting provider and ask them to increase them for you.
Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
