    2 issues.

    1. Most of the XML sitemaps are working. The Page sitemap is not loading returning a 500 error.
    2. HTML sitemap is also returning a 500 error.

    Any help greatly appreciated.

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    It seems that you’re currently using the Rank Math PRO plugin, but the account you have used to open this ticket is the Rank Math free version.

    Can you please search and forward a receipt from FastSpring.com so we can locate your account and verify it?

    Back to your issue, seems like your page-sitemap is working well. I’ve attached a screenshot in the sensitive data section for your reference.

    But your HTML sitemap is returning HTTP ERROR 500. Can you please try checking the PHP values of your site? You can check that by going to WordPress dashboard > Tools > Site Health > Info tab > Server

    If the values are low, please contact your web host and ask them to set the following values:

    PHP Memory Limit: 512M
    Max input time: 150
    PHP time limit: 120
    PHP max input variables: 1000
    

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.

    Thank you for the prompt reply.

    Appears the Business sub had expired. I have renewed now.

    I think the issue was being caused by too many products trying to load.

    A second issue I wonder if you could help with.

    On the HTML Sitemap, I have marked Product Categories to be shown. However it is only showing the Top Level categories and no sub categories – which is what I we really need.

    Is there anyway to get the sub categories to display on the HTML sitemap?

    Hello,

    Sorry to disappoint you. There is no any way to get subcategories to display on the HTML sitemap at present. We have added this to our feature suggestion and let’s hope that this will be included in future updates.

    As for the sitemap issue, please apply the recommended PHP values as instructed by my colleague here.

    You may also head over to your WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > Sitemap Settings > General and lower the “Links per Sitemap” option to at least 100.

    Let us know how that goes. Looking forward to helping you.

    That is EXTREMELY disappointing. I do hope that is rectified soon.

    Hello,

    We already have some feature requests from our users regarding the subcategories in HTML Sitemap and our development team is already aware of this issue.

    When the feature is already available, we will update all our users using the usual communication channels. You can also keep an eye on our changelog here:

    We would really appreciate your kind patience regarding this matter.

    Thank you.
