Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with your sitemap not updating. Here are a few things you can check to troubleshoot this problem:
-
Check Sitemap Settings: Ensure that the new post types are included in your sitemap. You can do this by navigating to Rank Math SEO → Sitemap Settings and confirming that the new post types are set to be included.

-
Robots Meta Settings: Make sure that the Robots Meta for your posts is set to Index and that they are included in the sitemap. If you have set any post type to No Index, it will not appear in the sitemap.
-
Check for Plugin Conflicts: Sometimes, other plugins can interfere with Rank Math’s functionality. You can use the Health Check plugin to identify any potential conflicts.
-
Clear Cache: If you are using a caching plugin, clear the cache to ensure that the latest version of your sitemap is being served.
-
Submit Correct Sitemap URL: Make sure you are submitting the correct XML sitemap URL to Google, which should be something like `https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Check-if-page-is-set-with-Index-robots-meta.png.
If you have checked all these settings and the issue persists, please reply to this ticket with your website URL so that a human agent from our support team can assist you further. Thank you for raising this concern!

Either you tell me the solution or I should move to some other plugin. Firstly, you do not have any system through which I can talk to you live.

Hello,
Unfortunately, our scope of support does not extend to chats, phone calls, or remote applications like AnyDesk or Zoom apps.
Please share your sitemap URL so we can check as well.
Meanwhile, please follow these steps to flush your sitemap cache:
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:

2. 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/
3. Disable the transient cache for the sitemap by applying this filter. This will make sure that your XML sitemap always reflects the latest changes on your site:
/**
* Filter if XML sitemap transient cache is enabled.
*
* @param boolean $unsigned Enable cache or not, defaults to true
*/
add_filter( 'rank_math/sitemap/enable_caching', '__return_false');
If you’re not sure how to add this code, you can follow this guide:

Looking forward to helping you.
