Your Sitemap appears to be an HTML page. Please use a supported sitemap format i

Hi @nav865

Upon checking your sitemap (https://www.khushkhabari.in/sitemap_index.xml), it does seem to be loading correctly as expected.

We understand you are getting the ‘your sitemap appears to be an HTML page. please use a supported sitemap format instead’ error from Google Search Console.

Are you using W3 Total Cache or any other caching plugin on your site? You can learn more about how to resolve it here – https://yoast.com/help/xml-sitemap-errors/#gsc

Otherwise, we recommend that you remove and resubmit your sitemap at a later date – https://yoast.com/help/submit-sitemap-search-engines/#google-remove

No. I am using Asset Cleanup : Page speed booster Plugin.

Hi @nav865

We recommend that you clear all caches (browser, CDN, plugin, etc.) and try to remove and resubmit your sitemap, as from how we’re checking it, the sitemap index seems to be loading properly with the correct format as expected – https://yoast.com/help/submit-sitemap-search-engines/#google-remove

I tried clearing cache and purge from Server Host 2 times. But no luck. Is there any way to report this to google search console ..?

@nav865

It looks like you’re using the Rank Math sitemap https://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/20234075?key=9724f10d93977fc2f9d2ef247dda9a05

Please contact Rank Math support for further assistance.
