    Hi,

    sitemap gets not found for mysterious reason,

    but if I reset sitemap cache (changing links per sitemap from 200 to 199 or from 200 to 201)

    it builds up again for few minutes and then disappear again,

    what reasons ?

    thanks

    I can see that your sitemap is now working well also your /post_tag-sitemap.xml is included there. I’ve attached a screenshot in the sensitive data section for your reference.

    Can you please try to clear your website cache and check this again?

    Let us know how it goes.

    Hi,

    we already said that we are not using any website cache

    and the sitemap is working because we refreshed the sitemap chance (changed links from 199 to 200) as this was mentioned in our first message

    when we refresh sitemap cache it works for some time but after some time it gone.

    Hello,

    If flushing the sitemap cache fixes the issue (change links per sitemap/permalinks), then your sitemap is still getting cached.

    In this case, you may need to exclude the Sitemap files of the Rank Math plugin in your server-level caching. Please get in touch with your web host to exclude your sitemaps from the caching services.

    Hope that helps.

    Thank you.
