I’m unable to generate language-specific sitemaps for my website

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with generating language-specific sitemaps for your website. To create multilingual sitemaps using Rank Math, you need to ensure that your translation plugin is properly integrated with Rank Math. Since you are using GTranslate, here are some steps to help you:

1. Check GTranslate Settings: Ensure that GTranslate is set up correctly and that it is translating your pages as expected.

2. Verify Sitemap Index: Rank Math automatically creates a sitemap index that includes all your posts, including translated ones. You can check your sitemap index at `https://rankmath.com/kb/multilingual-seo-wpml/. If the translated pages are not appearing, it may be due to how GTranslate handles translations.

3. Use WPML or TranslatePress: For better compatibility with Rank Math, consider using WPML or TranslatePress, as they have built-in support for creating multilingual sitemaps. Rank Math works seamlessly with these plugins to generate language-specific sitemaps without additional configuration.

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

5. Submit Your Sitemap: Once your multilingual content is set up correctly, ensure that you submit your sitemap index to Google Search Console to help Google index your translated pages.

If you would like a more comprehensive setup or assistance, we recommend our professional setup service, which requires a PRO subscription. You can find more information and sign up for the service at Rank Math Services.
