My sitemap has a problem:

This page contains the following errors:

error on line 1 at column 7: XML declaration allowed only at the start of the document Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.

I already tried disabling all plugins one by one, toggling the sitemap feature in Jetpack, deactivating and reactivating Jetpack, refreshing permalinks, and clearing cache. I haven’t made any changes to wpconfig or installed anything new.

Any help is appreciated!

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Hi @cardinaldecor,

I just checked your sitemap at https://www.cardinaldecor.com/sitemap.xml and it’s loading fine for me without any errors.

Has the issue resolved on its own, or are you still seeing the error on your end? If issue is still there, please share with us a screenshot to give us better insight into the proble: https://wordpress.com/support/make-a-screenshot/.

Best,

It was one space in a plugin. Thank you!

Hi @cardinaldecor,

Thanks for the update, and I’m glad you were able to pinpoint the cause! Those sneaky extra spaces can cause all sorts of unexpected issues!

I’ll go ahead and mark this thread as resolved, but if you run into any other sitemap or Jetpack-related problems in the future, feel free to start a new thread, and we’ll be happy to help. 🙂

Have a great day!
