    Hi David,

    To create an XML Sitemap using All in One SEO Pack, first activate the XML Sitemap module, next go to the settings for that module and make sure that the filename prefix is set to sitemap and you’ve checked the Notify Google and Notify Bing boxes. Make sure you’ve selected the checkboxes for the content types you want added to your sitemap and finally make sure that Dynamically Generate Sitemap is checked. Once you’ve done this click the blue Update Sitemap button. There should be a link to view your sitemap.

    Hello

    So I have done this before but I thought I would follow your instructions just to make sure.

    So I deactivated sitemap module. Then activated the module

    I followed your instructions https://screencast.com/t/4siDd9Kk https://screencast.com/t/56pQyhWG

    I hit update and I still get a 404 error when viewing the sitemap.

    Again thanks for your support if you could help me check what else I need to do that would be great. ??

    Can you send me the WordPress admin login via our contact form here please – https://semperplugins.com/contact/. Best guess this is an issue with your htaccess file or a plugin/theme conflict.

    Thanks David,

    It’s working now. It looks like it may be a server issue. I’ll have our Lead Developer check it tomorrow.

    Hi David,

    This is fixed. The issue was due to bad code in your theme that flushes rewrite rules on the front end of the site in rt-framework/classes/theme.php

    `//Flush rewrite rules
    add_action(‘init’, ‘flush_rewrite_rules’);`

    We’ve fixed this in the child theme, I’d still suggest contacting the theme developer about this issue, or using a different theme if you continue to have issues.
