    Hi

    How do I enable media in sitemap?

    In the “Include in Sitemap”, i can’t switch it to “ON”

    It says “To generate attachment sitemap disable attachment redirection to parent.” which i don’t have any idea to do it.

    Is it recommended to switch media to “On” in sitemap?

    Hello,

    Please know that the images are already included in your sitemap.
    ​
    ​You can open your post or pages sitemap and see the images beside each post’s URL: https://i.rankmath.com/3t6KjL
    ​
    ​The option you are referencing to pertains to the attachment pages. We do not recommend enabling attachments, let alone have a separate sitemap for it. The reason being that attachments cause thin content issues and dilute down your website’s authority.

    ​
    ​If you still want to proceed and enable attachments as well as attachment sitemaps, you can do so from WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > Links. Disable the redirect attachments option: https://i.rankmath.com/zsKRPg
    ​
    ​Then, go to WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Sitemap Settings > Media and enable the Attachments sitemap.
