WordPress Sitemap Issue (1 post)

    I'm running a WordPress blog (v 2.8.4) with the Google XML Sitemaps plugin.

    The plugin works fine but there is one entry listed to a page that does not exist on my site. It's causing an error in my Google Webmaster tools.

    All the other sitemap listings display the domain while the one "bad" listing displays the IP and a page ID that does not exist.

    I tried looking through the db using php MyAdmin to see if I could find the page/post but there isn't one listed with that ID.

    Is there another table in the db where page info is stored that would be causing this listing to appear in my sitemap?

    I tried reinstalling the plugin but that didn't work.

    I tired loading the "bad" url and it's interesting, the page returns a blank page. The header, footer, and sidebar are displayed, but no main body content. It's also worth mentioning that it does not display a 404 error when loading the page. That would seem to indicate that the page existing is some form somewhere. I just don't know where or how to find it.

    Any idea how to find this page and delete it or otherwise fix the sitemap issue?

    Thanks
