Hello,
Thanks for contacting us, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
It seems you forgot to add the website URL in the sensitive area. Please share that.
Looking forward to helping you.
Thank You
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
this is the website url: Playingviral.com
Hello,
Can you please confirm if you’re referring to sitemap showing 0 discovered URL on GSC?
If not, please add a bit more information of the issue you’re referring to. Since I can see that your sitemap is validating fine on XML validator.
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Thank you.
Yes, that is what i’m talking about. Why is it showing 0? but if i submit any of the sitemaps below, it doesnt show 0, it shows all the urls in it.
https://playingviral.com/post-sitemap.xml
https://playingviral.com/page-sitemap.xml
https://playingviral.com/category-sitemap.xml
The ones above don’t do the samething
Hello,
Can you please try removing /sitemap_index.xml in the sitemap section of GSC and re-submitting /?sitemap=1 to see if that works for you?
Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
I have done that already! I did it 4 days ago… but still no changes.
Hello,
We apologize for the delay in response.
The Discovered URLs 0 that you see in Google Search Console just means that the URLs in the sitemap were already found by Googlebot by other means, instead of via the sitemap. For example, Googlebot may have found the URLs from internal links or possibly from links on another site.
Kindly wait for Google to fully crawl your sitemap and let us know if this resolves the issue. You may give it a couple of days or a week.
If that doesn’t help you, please follow the steps below:
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:

2. Exclude the Sitemap files of the Rank Math plugin in your caching plugin. The cache could be via a plugin or from the server. For plugins or Cloudflare, please follow this article:

3. Remove all your sitemaps again from your Google Search Console and resubmit only the primary one (sitemap_index.xml).
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
