Hello,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with your video sitemap redirecting to the homepage. This can be quite frustrating, but we’re here to help.
To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
-
Validate Your Sitemap: Use the Validate XML Sitemap tool to confirm that your video sitemap is correctly configured.
-
Ensure the Sitemap is Located in the Root Folder: Make sure that your video sitemap is installed in the root folder of your WordPress installation. It should be located at a URL like this: `https://rankmath.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/video-sitemap-settings.jpg
-
Check for Caching Issues: If you have caching enabled on your website, it might be causing the redirection issue. You can refer to this guide on excluding sitemaps from caching to resolve this.
If you’ve already tried these steps and are still facing issues, please feel free to assign this ticket to our support team using the available button, and we’ll be happy to assist you further.
