Sitemap not found

    Hi there, I’m having an issue with the post sitemap. When I try to access it, I’m getting a 404. Other sitemaps generated by Rank Math are working fine.

    Here’s the sitemap index: https://resistance.repair/sitemap_index.xml

    And here’s the post sitemap: https://resistance.repair/post-sitemap.xml

    The sitemap “last modified” value is updating whenever I update a post, in case that’s helpful to know.

    I’ve tried re-saving my permalinks setting under Settings -> Permalinks to no avail, and I’ve also tried changing the permalink format which didn’t seem to make a difference. I’ve also excluded sitemaps from caching in .htaccess.

    Let me know if there’s anything else I can try or if you need any other information.

    Thank you,
    Ben Grubbs

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.

    I’ve checked some posts on your site, but it seems that they are set to noindex. Please note that a URL should be set to index for it to be included in the sitemaps:
    https://rankmath.com/kb/url-not-in-sitemap/#noindex

    Please ensure that you have already set the robots meta of your posts in Rank Math > Titles & Meta > Posts, and upon editing them.

    Then, clear your website’s cache and check again your sitemaps.

    Let us know how this goes.

    Thank you.
