Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention. I’m sorry for the delay and for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you.
1. I’ve checked your site, and it seems that your /cart is included in your sitemap. However, that page is already set to noindex. Could you please follow these steps to flush your sitemap cache?
1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:
https://i.rankmath.com/xXXhDt
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.
https://rankmath.com/kb/exclude-sitemaps-from-caching/
Once done, visit your sitemap /page-sitemap.xml and ensure that the /cart is already excluded.
2. I’ve checked some listings under /classified/, and they are already set to index and included in your sitemap. Could you please share some affected URLs to check further?
I hope that helps. Thank you, and looking forward to your update.
1. Flush the Sitemap cache = Done,
2. Entered the never cache URLs (WP Rocket) – But I did see: “Sensitive pages like custom login/logout URLs should be excluded from cache.
Cart, checkout and “my account” pages set in WooCommerce will be detected and never cached by default.”
Makes me feel they never did cache /cart
anyway, I then finished off your instructions by what you said, and all looks good. (But there is this… -> See screenshot)
2. About the classifieds URLs, not to worry, I notice they are last crawled in January, so I will do a verification once again and hope that is resolved.
Thanks!
Hello,
Thanks for your reply.
I visited the links highlighted in the screenshot of the page sitemap, and I noticed that they are getting redirected to the /activity/ page. Upon testing with https://httpstatus.io/, I found that a 302 redirection is set on the links.
Could you please confirm whether you’ve set these redirections? Also, since the links are appearing in the sitemap, please let us know whether these pages are set to No Index or not?
Looking forward to helping you.
Thanks.
HI, Prabhat Rai
I checked using your link to those links too and found they’re ok (code 200).
I will leave them to get validated and let’s go from there when I get the results.
I think that’s best since it may be resolved after some work on both our sides.
Many thanks
