• Hi Esha,

    Thanks for a great plugin. We’re trying to make it work with our site – https://www.christmasgifts.com/. When we had installed it few months ago, it was showing only 1 xml sitemap here – https://www.christmasgifts.com/sitemap-index-image.xml and that was https://www.christmasgifts.com/sitemap-image-1.xml.

    But today when we were updating some of the titles of the images in our website, the changes were not getting reflected in the Image sitemap (https://www.christmasgifts.com/sitemap-image-1.xml). So we thought to regenerate the sitemap through the plugin settings.

    Now in the plugin settings we’re unable to uncheck “Include post in Sitemap” and “Include page in Sitemap” options when trying to save the configuration. Even though we’re unchecking it, when we save the config, the checkboxes for these appear as checked again. This is one issue.

    So after that when we clicked “Create Sitemap Manually” button, we found that the parent XML file i.e. https://www.christmasgifts.com/sitemap-index-image.xml contains multiple small image XML files now (which was only 1 earlier). Also the individual XML files e.g. https://www.christmasgifts.com/sitemap-image-1.xml contains URLs of the posts/pages which do not have any images and I think earlier that was not the case. Earlier it was displaying only URLs of posts/pages which have images. This is the second issue.

    Lastly, can you advise if we update the title & Alt text of image, will it be automatically updated in the image sitemap?

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    You should only submit the Index Sitemap (which contains multiple sitemap links) to google.

    This is recommended approach by google. Also the sitemap now functions as complete sitemap plugin earlier it worked only for image. So you can use only this sitemap and no need to use any other sitemap plugin
