    THe XML sitemap doesn’t seem to be adding new pages when they are published. I have double and triple checked the documentation https://rankmath.com/kb/url-not-in-sitemap/

    -URL is indexed
    -Canonical tag is self-referencing
    -XML sitemap settings show no exclusion
    -Sitemap is not cached through WP Rocket

    It seemed to have just started. When I publish a new page, they don’t get included, but everything before the last week or so is included.

    Posts don’t seem to be affected.

  • Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear that you’re experiencing issues with your XML sitemap not populating new pages. It seems like you’ve already checked a few things based on our documentation, but there are a few more things we can look into.

    One possible reason for this issue could be due to the caching of the sitemap. Even though you’ve mentioned that the sitemap is not cached through WP Rocket, it’s still worth checking if there are any other caching mechanisms in place that might be affecting the sitemap.

    Another thing to consider is whether there are any custom canonicals set for the new pages that are not being included in the sitemap. If there are custom canonicals set, it might be preventing those pages from being added to the sitemap.

    If you’ve already checked these aspects and they don’t seem to be the cause of the issue, it might be best to have a closer look at your specific setup. I’d recommend reaching out to our dedicated support team by clicking on the “Contact our dedicated support team” link here.
