Hello,
We apologize for the issues you are facing with your sitemap. Thank you for raising your concerns.
Issue 1: Favicon Icon
The favicon icon displayed on your sitemap may not be directly related to Rank Math but could be due to caching or a conflict with another plugin or theme. Here are a few steps you can take to resolve this:
- Clear your website cache: If you are using a caching plugin, clear the cache to see if the correct favicon appears.
- Check your theme settings: Ensure that your theme settings are correctly configured to display the right favicon.
- Inspect for conflicts: Use the Health Check plugin to identify any potential conflicts with other plugins or themes.
Issue 2: Google Search Console Temporary Processing Error
For the temporary processing error in Google Search Console, follow these steps:
- Validate Your Sitemap: Use the Validate XML Sitemap tool to ensure your sitemap is correctly configured. Enter your sitemap URL and click VALIDATE SITEMAP.

- Ensure the Sitemap is Located in the Root Folder: Make sure your sitemap is accessible at `https://rankmath.com/kb/check-plugin-conflicts/.
- Check Index Settings: Ensure that your posts are set to index. Go to Rank Math SEO → Titles & Meta and enable the Index checkbox in the Robots Meta settings.

- Flush Cache: If you have caching enabled, flush the cache after making changes.
