 * I installed your plugin and went to check the sitemap and it contains this error:
 * XML Parsing Error: not well-formed
    Location: [http://claystudiotour.com/sitemap.xml](http://claystudiotour.com/sitemap.xml)
   Line Number 11, Column 56: <loc>[http://claystudiotour.com/?post_type=_pods_pod&p=563</loc&gt](http://claystudiotour.com/?post_type=_pods_pod&p=563</loc&gt);———————————————————————
   ^
 * Can you tell me what is causing this?

 * Have you tried excluding the _pods_pod post type from your sitemap? You’d probably
   want to do that with all _pods_* post types.
