Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
The error reported on your sitemap suggests that there is some whitespace before the opening <?php tag on your functions.php file or before the first text on your wp-config.php file.
Please inspect these files and delete the whitespaces to fix this.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.
I checked and I don’t see any spaces on both the functions.php and wp-config.php files.
Hello,
We might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WP & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.
It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/
You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-security-audit-log/
We really look forward to helping you.
Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
Hi there,
Thank you for the patience.
There was some white space at the end of your functions.php file which was causing this.
I have gone ahead and deleted it to fix this issue.
I hope this info helps. Thank you.
