Sitemap home page not included

    Rank Math free

    Hello,
    Can you please confirm the following:
    When a static page is set as the homepage in WordPress, Rank Math does not include it as a separate entry in the page-sitemap.xml, because it’s already considered included as the root URL (/) in the sitemap. My question is regarding if this behavior is usual in the hombe pages of the site.
    Regards

  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing. Yes, when a static page is set as the homepage in WordPress, Rank Math typically does not include it as a separate entry in the page-sitemap.xml. This is because the homepage is already represented by the root URL (/) in the sitemap. This behavior is standard and expected for homepages.

    If you have any further questions or need additional clarification, please feel free to reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for raising this concern!
