Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that you are facing issues finding the sitemap index URL in the setup page. If you are not seeing the sitemap index URL section and instead only see a banner advertising the Rank Math Pro version, it might be due to the specific settings or tabs you are currently viewing.
To locate the sitemap index URL, please follow these steps:
- Go to your Rank Math settings.
- Look for the Sitemap settings or Sitemap Index section.
- The sitemap index URL should be displayed at the top of the page in that section.
If you are still unable to locate the sitemap index URL, please provide more details about the specific settings or tabs you are currently viewing so that we can assist you further. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Why Isn’t My URL Included in the Sitemap? » Rank Math
Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
Rank Math generates the sitemap at /sitemap_index.xml. If you’re not able to access your sitemap at this location, please try to follow the steps below:
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:

3. If the above steps don’t seem to work, kindly apply the following filter to your site.
add_filter( 'rank_math/sitemap/enable_caching', '__return_false');
Here’s how you can add filter/hook to your WordPress site:
