Sitemap XML and entry of page that not exist

Hello,

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

We’ve checked your page and we can see it is getting redirected by WordPress, not by our plugin:

However, if this page doesn’t exist on your website but still appears on your sitemap then please try to follow the steps below and see if that works for you:

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

3. If the above steps don’t seem to work, kindly apply the following filter to your site.

add_filter( 'rank_math/sitemap/enable_caching', '__return_false');

Here’s how you can add filter/hook to your WordPress site:

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

Thank you.

Hello,

In this case, we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please edit the first post on this ticket and include your WordPress & FTP logins in the designated Sensitive Data section.

Please do take a complete backup of your website before sharing the information with us.

It is completely secure and only our support staff has access to that section. If you want, you can use the below plugin to generate a temporary login URL to your website and share that with us instead:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/temporary-login-without-password/

You can use the above plugin in conjunction with the WP Security Audit Log to monitor what changes our staff might make on your website (if any):

Looking forward to helping you.

Thank you.

Hello,

To fix the incorrect homepage URL of your secondary languages in the sitemap, I have added this filter to your theme’s functions.php file on your staging site:

You can apply the same as well in your live site. Here are different ways to apply the code:

Hope that helps.

Thank you.
