    Hello,

    Thank you so much for getting in touch.

    Please make sure that there are posts associated with those taxonomies. If you have empty taxonomies, you may turn on “include empty terms” in the same sitemap settings.

    If the issue persists, can you please follow these steps to try and resolve the issue you are facing?

    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:

    Please do not hesitate to let us know if this doesn’t help or you have any follow-up queries.
