Hello,
Thank you for getting in touch with us.
Rank math is adding your URL as it is on your site. Even if you tried to access your category URL via https://3rings.eu/fr/categorie-produit/luminotherapie/ it will automatically redirect to https://3rings.eu/product-category/luminotherapy/ which loads correctly. Please ensure you have translated your category slug/URL using your translation plugin and make sure the translated URL works for and then you can work on having the translated URL in sitemap.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Hello,
thank you for your answer. Actually due to the website maintenance mode, I’ve noticed that my issue cannot be reproduced correctly.
All french product urls have been correctly translated with Translatepress (slug, etc…), however the product category sitemap lists the english slug version of the tranlsated URL (with the correct french translated url as canonical) instead of listing directly the french translated urls.
Anyway I’ll be back to you once the website is live in order to give you the possibility to better reproduce my issue,
Hello again,
the website is live: 3rings.eu
Go to the product category sitemap: https://3rings.eu/product_cat-sitemap.xml
You will find a liste of product category URL for English (default) and French. However French URL slugs are not correctly translated in the sitemap. Example:
Sitempap:
English: https://3rings.eu/product-category/cosmeceutic/correcting-care/
French: https://3rings.eu/fr/categorie-produit/cosmeceutic/correcting-care/
Website:
English: https://3rings.eu/product-category/cosmeceutic/correcting-care/
French: https://3rings.eu/fr/categorie-produit/cosmeceutique/soin-correcteur/
As you can see the French URL in the sitemap is wrong, it sould be the URL used in the website:
https://3rings.eu/fr/categorie-produit/cosmeceutique/soin-correcteur/
The wrong French URL currently listed in the sitemap has a canonical to the correct French URL used in the website.
Hello,
Can you please try refreshing your sitemap by following these steps?
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:
