video sitemap does not read videos in the article

Hello, we’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with the video sitemap not reading the videos in the designated section of your articles.

To ensure that the video sitemap includes the videos from the specific section, you need to make sure that the Video Post Type is configured correctly. Once you’ve enabled the Video Sitemap module, you can configure your Video Sitemap under Rank Math SEO → Sitemap Settings → Video Sitemap.

Under the Video Sitemap section, you’ll find the Video Post Type option that lets you choose all the post types where you use video. Rank Math will look for the presence of videos only in these posts types and includes them in the Video Sitemap.

Here’s a screenshot of where you can configure the Video Post Type:

Please ensure that the post type where you’ve placed the videos is selected in this setting. If you still encounter issues after configuring this setting, please feel free to reach out to our support team for further assistance.

If you have any other questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Hello,

Thank you for contacting Rank Math support.

Rank Math Video Sitemaps are created via the details of your Rank Math video schema. Rank Math can automatically detect videos in your content and use that to create a video schema for your video, which in turn gets used to create the video schema.

The problem is that Rank Math is not detecting video in your content because you are adding the video outside of WordPress’s default post editor – which is the only place Rank Math can detect videos. If you use a custom field to add your videos, you can specify the custom field in Rank Math > Sitemap Settings > Video Sitemap > Custom Fields.

Also, we can see that your theme, RealHomes, is generating a video schema for the video. Once you set the Rank Math video sitemap properly, you should disable this so it does not conflict with our schema.

We hope this helps you fix your video sitemap issue. If you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us again. We are always here to assist you.
