Hello,
We apologize for the confusion regarding your XML sitemaps. You do not need to submit all 8 individual sitemaps to Google Search Console. Instead, Rank Math automatically creates a single master XML sitemap index file for your website, which consolidates all the individual sitemaps.
You can find your sitemap index at:
`https://rankmath.com/kb/sitemaps-seo-benefits/#local-sitemap
By submitting this sitemap index to Google Search Console, Google will automatically discover and fetch all the individual sitemaps listed within it. This makes it easier for search engines to crawl your site efficiently.
Thank you for raising this concern! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

Sorry, I still don’t know where to find the master xml sitemap. Is it this one? https://www.digitalelement.com/sitemap_index.xml
