    Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear about the issue you are facing with your sitemap not being submitted in Google Search Console despite encountering HTTP error 418. To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check if Your Sitemap is Accessible: Use the httpstatus.io tool to check the accessibility of your sitemap URL. Make sure there are no issues preventing Googlebot from accessing your sitemap.

      Check if sitemap is accessible in httpstatus tool

    2. Exclude Sitemaps From Caching: If your sitemap is being cached, exclude it from caching. You can refer to our tutorial on how to exclude Sitemaps from caching.

    3. Submit the Correct Sitemap: Ensure you have submitted the correct sitemap. You should submit sitemap_index.xml and ensure that all inner sitemaps, like post-sitemap.xml, are showing up in Google Search Console when clicking on sitemap_index.xml.

    If these steps do not resolve the issue, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.

    Thank you for reaching out with your concern.

    Hello,

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

    Could you please share your sitemap URL with us so that we can check the issue further for you?

    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/

    Once done, clear your website cache, remove all the submitted sitemap, and resubmit only the /sitemap_index.xml in the Search Console.

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

    Thank you.
