post-sitemap.xml is showing html posts

Hello,

I’m sorry to hear about the issue you’re facing with your post-sitemap.xml showing HTML posts instead of working properly in Google Console. To resolve this problem, you can follow these steps:

1. Check if Your Sitemap is Accessible: Use the HTTPStatus tool to check the status of your sitemap URL. This will help identify any issues preventing Googlebot from accessing your sitemap.

   

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

3. Ensure Correct Sitemap Submission: Make sure you have submitted the correct sitemap to Google. Submit sitemap_index.xml and ensure that all inner sitemaps like post-sitemap.xml are visible in Google Search Console when clicking on sitemap_index.xml.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, please let us know, and we’ll be happy to assist further.

Thank you for reaching out, and we appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this issue for you.
