    Hello,

    Thank you for getting back to us.

    Upon further checking your site I was able to replicate the issue of not having the last sitemap i.e sitemap10.

    I have gone ahead and flushed your sitemap and increased your limit for links within the sitemap to 501 and then saved these settings.

    Your last sitemap is now being displayed (See screenshot: https://i.rankmath.com/lxk6w9) and you can go ahead and submit your sitemap on Search Console for further crawling.

    Hope this helped. Please let us know if you need any other assistance.
    Thank you.

    Thank you for your help.
    But the main question is this sitemap updating is not happening at each time interval, which is very frustrating for me.
    Please do an immediate fix for this problem.
    Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your reply

    The plugin itself is working fine. All the arrows point towards the cache issue, which I believe you must have a cache plugin installed on your website, and Hopefully, you have set an exception for the sitemap inside your cache plugin (if not already, please follow the link: https://rankmath.com/kb/exclude-sitemaps-from-caching/ )

    Try to disable the cache plugin entirely and see if the issue persists.

    Looking forward to helping you.

    Hello,

    I can see the fresh content inside your sitemap after flushing the cache. I waited 30 minutes and saw another four posts were included inside it. The issue seems to be resolved.

    Just Post content on your website, wait for 20-30 minutes and re-check your sitemap.

    Looking forward to your update. Thank you.

    again same issue. Is there any permanent solution?

    Hello,

    It looks like your sitemap is still heavily cached considering it takes time to update. Could you please contact your host and see if there is any caching software (such as Cloudflare) installed on your server that is still caching your sitemap?

    We are looking forward to helping you.

    Yes, cloudflare is installed i check with my host and take update.

    Sorry, I havnt installed or activated Cloudflare CDN for my site. So why this error?

    Hello,

    Thank you for keeping in touch with us.

    In that case, you may also ask the host if there is any server-level caching software other than Cloudflare. By default, Rank Math’s sitemap files are not cached unless there is any plugin or server caching app including it.

    I went ahead and checked your sitemap and it seems to be working fine now. It shows an updated URL.

    Let us know if you still experience the issue and we will further investigate.

    Thank you.

    It showing updated url because I have refreshed my Sitemap manually.
    And for sever side caching i recheck with my host.
