    We checked your website and confirmed that the sitemap and robots.txt files look fine. It seems like Google Search Console is showing you the cached result.

    To address this, we suggest the following actions:

    1. Clear all your caching from your theme, plugin, server, CDN like CloudFlare or browser. If you want to clear cache from the server, please speak to your host provider. To clear the cache from a browser use this guide:?https://kb.yoast.com/kb/how-to-clear-my-browsers-cache/.

    2. Delete your sitemap in Google. Doing so will not hurt the SEO of the site. This guide explains more (scroll to the bottom):?https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/183669?hl=en.

    3. Submit the sitemap again. Be sure to submit only sitemap_index.xml and nothing else. This guide explains more:?https://kb.yoast.com/kb/submit-sitemap-search-engines/.

    4. Monitor the results to see if the issue is resolved. It can take some time before Google can report on the crawled URLs after you re-submit your sitemap.

    Please let us know if you have any questions; we’re happy to help.`

    I think that Google Crawler have not yet crawl my /Post-sitemap.xml sitemap and it was showing last read on 26th may. As now the sitemap can be visible on a site and working fine. But Google Search Console showing Post Sitemap error.

    Q. Should I give time to google crawler to crawl my website? Does this fix Issue of Post sitemap automatically.

    @usm3657 We hope you had completely deleted the sitemaps from Google Search Console (including post sitemap and other indiv. sitemaps) and resubmitted the sitemap as instructed before. After resubmission, definitely, we recommend you wait for a couple of days until Google crawls your website. We expect the post sitemap error as well should be gone.
