Hello, i just realised my websites sitemap is blank.
XML validator gives me this error: Incorrect http header content-type: “text/html; charset=UTF-8” (expected: “application/xml”)
I’ve tried to flush the sitemap cache atleast 10 times with the instructions.
Sitemap is excluded in the caching plugin settings.
I added this line to my functions.php add_filter( ‘rank_math/sitemap/enable_caching’, ‘__return_false’);
Also source code is empty. What more i can do?

Hello.
Can you please follow these steps?
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:
https://i.rankmath.com/pipRDp2. 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:
