Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
I couldn’t quite understand your issue. I have checked your posts sitemap and it has all the 15 URLs included. Could you please use https:/www.loom.com to record a screencast of your issue and share the URL in the sensitive section so we can understand better to help you.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
It resolved itself after about a week, practically when I insert a new post, the sitemap does not update the links.
Hello,
Do you mean that if you publish a post, it doesn’t appear immediately in the sitemap?
If that is what you mean, it is completely normal. To avoid issues, the sitemap is generated every time a specific cron job runs in your WordPress, so it can take some minutes until it appears in the sitemap.
You could force it by saving the permalinks, since it regenerates instantly the sitemap.
Looking forward to help you.
Hi Alberto,
unfortunately that’s the problem.
Even if I save the permalinks, the sitemap does not update.
This morning I added a new post, I saved the permalinks and the link still in the system does not appear.
Hello,
I accessed your site and created a test post but I can’t replicate your issue. Please check the screencast attached in the sensitive section.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
I updated the sensitive data with an image to understand where the problem is
Hello,
Do you know which one of those 16 URLs is the one not found by Google? If yes, could you share it in the Sensitive Data section so we can check it?
Looking forward to help you.

Hi,
It seems to be included just fine:
Sometimes, it might not appear to you because of browser cache. If that is the cache, you should do a hard refresh:
Windows: Ctrl + F5
Mac/Apple: Apple + R or command + R
Linux: F5
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
in the xml file all the links are displayed, the problem is on google > sitemap, it tells me that the xml file contains 15 links but if I open the file it contains 16, the same thing happens if I access the backend of the site menu bar ranch math seo > search console > sitemap tells me 15 links and not 16.
I hope I explained myself
Hello,
If in the sitemap generated by Rank Math everything works fine, it just means Google is taking some time to crawl the changes in the sitemap and there is nothing to do there, since it is only up to Google to increase the crawl frequency. But don’t worry, it also means you have no issues in your sitemap configuration.
Looking forward to help you.
