  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing with your XML sitemap not showing pages, categories, and posts. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

    1. Flush Permalinks: Sometimes, flushing permalinks can resolve sitemap issues. Go to your WordPress admin area, navigate to Settings → Permalinks, and click the “Save Changes” button without making any changes. This can help refresh the sitemap settings.
      Flush permalink settings

    2. Check Sitemap Settings: Ensure that you have enabled the necessary post types and taxonomies in your sitemap settings. Go to Rank Math SEO → Sitemap Settings and make sure that the options for pages, categories, and posts are checked.

    3. Check for Plugin Conflicts: Sometimes, other plugins can interfere with the sitemap functionality. You can use the Health Check plugin to identify any conflicts.

    4. Custom Canonicals: If you have set custom canonical URLs for your posts, they may not appear in the sitemap. Consider removing custom canonicals to allow Rank Math to generate them automatically.

    5. Check Robots.txt: Ensure that your robots.txt file is not blocking access to your sitemap. You can check this in Rank Math SEO → General Settings → robots.txt.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket with any additional details or errors you may be encountering, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

    Hello,

    Your pages are already shown in your /page-sitemap.xml. Also, your site doesn’t have any categories or posts.

    If you update a page, then you will notice the “Last Mod” column in the page sitemap will be updated as well.

    Looking forward to helping you.
