    Hi, please help me resolve this issue with regard to post sitemap xml.

    In my GSC sitemap record, my overall sitemap looks well, but when I click on it to see the page and post sitemap branches, the post one appears to be an error (as shown in the scrshots below).

    For the last 3 months, I have done nothing in terms of site setup and tweaking, only updating existing plugins in WP. Besides, my blog posts still get indexed fast as usual, so I can say there’s nothing wrong with my site in Google’s eyes.

    I have also flushed the Sitemap Cache once (1 month ago when I changed my WP theme) and then excluded my sitemap in WP Rocket’s “Never cache URLs”.

    Please advise me on what to do based on the situation. Thanks in advance.

    Hello,

    I checked the sitemap, it is working fine.

    Please add this filter in the theme’s functions.php file:

    add_filter( 'rank_math/sitemap/enable_caching', '__return_false');

    Here is a guide you can follow to add the filter:

    Once done, clear your website cache and resubmit the sitemap_index.xml again.

    Hope that helps.

    Looking forward to helping you.
