Sitemap not updating: Marked page as noindex but still available on sitemap

Hello,

Thank you for contacting the support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

I tried checking the sample page you shared and it seems that I can’t find it on the sitemap page. This looks like it is just a caching issue.

To solve this issue in case you encounter this again please follow these steps:
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:

That should fix the issue. Please let me know if that does not. We are here to assist.

Hello,

Thank you for following up.

To exclude these pages in your sitemap, you need to enter the post/page ID of that particular page you want to exclude.

Head over to WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Sitemap Settings > General.

And, here’s how you find the post/page ID inside WordPress: https://mythemeshop.com/blog/how-to-find-post-category-tag-comments-or-user-id-in-wordpress/

I hope that helps. Thank you, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance.
