    While there is a limit of 200 in the sitemap on my website, it automatically created the second sitemap because I entered 221 pieces of content.
    When I realized this, I increased the limit and deleted the other map from the search console.
    Could you help me with this?
    1. Sitemap;
    site.com/post-sitemap.xml

    2. sitemap;
    site.com/post-sitemap1.xml

    I need delete 2.sitemap.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    Rank Math creates a new post/page sitemap when the limit per sitemap is reached.

    If you have already increased the limit but the sitemap is not updating, please 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:
    https://rankmath.com/kb/exclude-sitemaps-from-caching/

    Once done, remove all the sitemaps from the Search Console and add only sitemap_index.xml, and wait for Google to crawl the sitemap.

    I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.

    I don’t think the problem is in the cache. The sitemap is also visible on different devices.

    I do what you tell me.
    But ı think its still wrong.

    Can you tell me, am ı right?
    This is my post sitemap;
    site.com/post-sitemap.xml

    İts normal?
    İf its normal and allright what is this;
    site.com/postsitemap1.xml (its same thing?)

    What you think, its wrong or normal?

    Hello,

    Yes, those sitemaps are normal but since you have increased the links per sitemap to eliminate the post-sitemap1, that sitemap shouldn’t appear.

    I checked your sitemap and it seems to be working fine now. Please allow Google some time to recrawl it.

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
