Search Console doesnt find pages via sitemap

Hello,

I apologize for the issue you are facing with Google Search Console not finding pages via your sitemap. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue:

1. Validate Your Sitemap

Make sure your sitemap is correctly configured. You can use the Validate XML Sitemap tool to check for any issues. If your sitemap is properly configured, it should return a "No issues detected" message.

2. Ensure the Sitemap is Located in the Root Folder

Confirm that your sitemap is located in the root folder of your WordPress installation. The URL should look like this:
`https://rankmath.com/kb/discovered-currently-not-indexed/

3. Check Indexing Settings

Ensure that your posts are set to index. Go to Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta and make sure the Index checkbox is enabled in the Robots Meta settings for your posts.

4. Add the Sitemap to Google Search Console Again

Navigate to Indexing → Sitemaps in Google Search Console, paste your sitemap URL, and click SUBMIT again. Make sure there are no spaces in the URL.

5. Wait for Google to Fetch Your Sitemap

If everything seems correct but the issue persists, it may take some time for Google to crawl and index your pages. You can also check if there are any technical issues preventing crawling, such as robots.txt restrictions or slow load times.

If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, please reply to this ticket with any additional details or questions, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.
