    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math, and sorry for any inconvenience caused.

    I checked the sitemap, it is working fine.

    Also checked the sitemap URL with XML Sitemap Validator, the sitemap validated without any issues.

    Check screenshot in the sensitive data section.

    Please follow these steps:
    1. Flush the Sitemap cache by following this video screencast:
    https://i.rankmath.com/pipRDp

    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:
    https://rankmath.com/kb/exclude-sitemaps-from-caching/

    Once done, clear your website cache and resubmit the sitemap_index.xml and wait for Google to recrawl the sitemap.

    That should fix the issue. Please let me know if that does not. We are here to assist.

    Hello,

    I checked the sitemap, it is still getting cached.

    Please exclude the sitemaps from caching from your caching plugin and Cloudflare:
    https://rankmath.com/kb/exclude-sitemaps-from-caching/

    Then, clear your website cache and re-submit the sitemap_index.xml and wait for Google to recrawl the sitemap.

    Regrading the discovered URLs, please note that Google crawls the sitemap and website according to the crawl budget of the website. It is possible that the crawl budget for your website is exhausted and Google is not able to discover the URLs within your sitemap.

    I hope this helps. Looking forward to helping you.

    Hello,

    Checking your sitemap deeply on our end, it seems to be working just fine and there should any reason for Google to ignore most of your posts.

    Can you please check with your hosting provider if there are any other server-level caching software that might be still caching your sitemap? If you do have it, please purge it or disable it temporarily to test the sitemap submission into your GSC.

    After doing so, remove all your sitemap/s from Google Search Console and submit only the primary sitemap (sitemap_index.xml).

    Let me know how it goes. We are looking forward to helping you.
