    I have set noindex for posts in the title and meta settings but included posts in sitemap as some of the posts are set index.
    But it appeared that there are 5 post sitemaps where first 4 sitemaps are with 404 error and the 5th Post sitemap is included with posts set as index.
    I am not able find the actual cause of that weird behavior. Expecting help here.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your query and we are so sorry about the trouble this must have caused.

    We have logged in to your website using the pop-up login on the frontend but when we enter the dashboard area, we are still blocked. Can you please check this one from your end?

    As for your issue, since you mentioned that you set the robots to noindex globally on Titles & Meta settings, it is expected that the entire post sitemap is getting a 404. If you wish to add a URL in the sitemap, that URL must be set to index and a self-referencing canonical URL.

    Looking forward to helping you.
