What is the best way to get google to re-crrawl and start recognising the content?
Hello,
I am glad that your issue is resolved.
You can submit the URL in Google Webmaster Tool and wait for Google to crawl your site.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
There were over 300 pages that incorrectly returning errors do resubmit them indidually or perhaps resubmit the whole sitemap again?
Hello,
Thank you for following up.
In this case, you will need to remove the sitemap/s you have submitted and only submit your main sitemap. Google will then recrawl your other sitemaps as well.
To avoid issues with sitemap caching, you can follow the steps below on how to flush and exclude your sitemap from caching before resubmitting:
1. Head over to WordPress Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks
Hit the save button once.
2. Go to WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Sitemap Settings
Hit the save button once.
3. Exclude your sitemap from your caching plugin:

Hello,
Just an addition to this, check some of the affected pages with the URL inspection tool and if all seems okay, then you can ask Google to recrawl your URLs: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/ask-google-to-recrawl
Hope this helps you
