My Sitemap is not working it was showing that not working!

Hello,

We apologize for the issue you are facing with your Sitemap after migrating from Bluehost to Hostinger. This can happen due to various reasons, especially related to server configurations or rewrite rules that may not have been properly set up during the migration.

Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check if the Sitemap Loads: Go to `https://rankmath.com/kb/wordpress-hooks-actions-filters/#rank-math-php-file. If it loads your sitemap, you may need to add some rewrite rules.

2. Add Rewrite Rules: Depending on your server type (Apache or Nginx), you may need to add specific rewrite rules:

   • For Apache, add the following to your .htaccess file:

     # 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, add the following to your Nginx config file:

     # 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

3. Flush Permalinks: Sometimes, simply flushing permalinks can resolve issues. Go to the Permalinks settings in your WordPress dashboard and click Save Changes without making any changes.

4. Check for Plugin Conflicts: Ensure that there are no conflicts with other plugins that might be affecting the Sitemap functionality. You can use the Health Check plugin to help identify any conflicts.

If you continue to experience issues, please reply to this ticket with your site URL so that a human agent from our support team can assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern, and we hope to resolve it quickly for you!

Hello,

The URL you’re using for your sitemap is incorrect, it should be without WWW.

You can also see that it is working properly, so you should redirect your whole site’s version to HTTPS non-WWW:

If you need assistance with the redirection, you may get in touch with your web host.

Looking forward to helping you.
