    I am reaching out regarding a query related to my sitemap configuration in Rank Math Pro.

    Recently, I have set up redirects for certain pages on my website and designated some URLs as “Non-canonical URLs” within the Rank Math Pro plugin. Despite these actions, I have noticed that these pages are still appearing in the sitemap generated by Rank Math Pro.

    Could you please guide me on how to effectively remove specific pages from the sitemap using Rank Math Pro? I have attempted to address this issue through redirects and non-canonical URL settings, but it seems that these pages are still being included in the sitemap.

    Any assistance or insights you can provide on resolving this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your attention to this request.

    Looking forward to your prompt response.

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the issue with removing specific pages from your sitemap using Rank Math Pro.

    To effectively remove specific pages from the sitemap generated by Rank Math Pro, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check Sitemap Settings: Ensure that the specific pages you want to exclude are not included in the Sitemap settings of Rank Math. You can exclude certain post IDs and term IDs under the Sitemap tab in the Rank Math settings. If the excluded URLs are author pages, also review the Authors sitemap settings.

    2. Set Custom Canonical URL: If you have set a custom canonical URL for a post or page, it might still be included in the sitemap. Check the Advanced Tab in Rank Math options to ensure the canonical URL is correctly set.

    3. Use Redirection Manager: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, you can utilize the Redirection Manager in Rank Math to redirect specific pages to non-amp versions. This can help in excluding them from the sitemap.

    If after following these steps, the specific pages are still appearing in the sitemap, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
