Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the product-tag sitemap showing a 404 error. It seems like you’ve already tried several troubleshooting steps, which is great. Here are a few additional suggestions that might help resolve the issue:
-
Check for Plugin Conflicts: Sometimes, other plugins can interfere with the sitemap functionality. You can use the Health Check plugin to identify any potential conflicts.
-
Verify Robots.txt: Ensure that your robots.txt file is not blocking the product-tag sitemap. You can check this in Rank Math SEO → General Settings → robots.txt.
-
Custom Canonicals: If you have set custom canonical URLs for your product tags, they may not appear in the sitemap. Consider removing those custom canonicals to see if it resolves the issue.
-
Server Configuration: Since you mentioned adding rewrite rules, ensure that your server configuration (Apache or Nginx) is correctly set up to handle the sitemap requests. If you’re using Nginx, make sure to add the appropriate rewrite rules as mentioned in our documentation.
-
Check Sitemap URL: Make sure that you are submitting the correct URL for your product-tag sitemap in Google Search Console. It should be accessible at `https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Flush-Permalinks-Settings.jpg.
