Post not in sitemap

    How long does it take for a post to be shown in a sitemap?

    I rewrote an article and created a new post using the same keyword and page URL. For some reason it’s not showing in the post sitemap. This was several days ago.

    I also checked Google Search Console, and it gave the same error for the page. Indexed but not in sitemap

    thanks

    Sorry for got to add page + the post is set to index, where the previous page was set to noindex for about 5 hours before the post was published.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. Iā€™m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    When a post is published, it should appear on the sitemap right away.

    I’ve checked the page you have shared, and it seems that you have added a custom canonical URL to that page.

    Please note that Rank Math automatically generates the canonical URL for all your pages if they are set to index. The main purpose of adding a custom canonical to your pages is to let Google know that it is a duplicate page, and not to be indexed.

    If you also set the canonical manually, your posts/pages will not be included in your sitemap. Hereā€™s a link for more information:

    I hope that helps.

    Thank you, and please donā€™t hesitate to contact us anytime if you need further assistance with anything else.
