I have active the sitemap, but the https://www.cweup.com/rank_math_locations-sitemap.xml is still 404
Actually, I want active the RM Locations, does it need I creat a page? or it should generate automatically?

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
We are able to log in to your website using the provided access details.
We discovered the location sitemap https://www.cweup.com/rank_math_locations-sitemap.xml
is redirecting to the homepage due to the redirection rule you have set up with the redirection plugin.
We went ahead to delete the redirection rule, flushed the sitemap cache and the sitemap is now working fine.
If you still can’t access the location sitemap, please clear your browser cache.
Hope this helps, and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
Thank you for choosing Rank Math.
