How to exclude xml File from caching

Hi @mapdi

can you please add from which plugin this sitemap is coming?

We already skip the cache for the core sitemaps:
https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/cachify/issues/242
https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/cachify/pull/254

For skipping the sitemap caching for the Google XML Sitemaps plugin you can use our filter cachify_skip_cache as seen here:
https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/cachify/issues/60#issuecomment-335106482

If we know which plugin is generating this Sitemap we will find a way to skip it with the before mentioned method.

All the best

Hi @mapdi

we need to check for the correct query_var.

For Google XML Sitemap this is defined here:
https://github.com/Auctollo/google-sitemap-generator/blob/dbca6fc9b9dd8cd0cd9e63758650d3f727d99683/class-googlesitemapgeneratorloader.php#L104-L114

And the rewrite rules are defined after that.

Now we need to look which query_var RankMath is using. Looks like this is defined here:
https://github.com/rankmath/seo-by-rank-math/blob/eea089f0afe7f476d1f9dadc1a9f75377373d282/includes/modules/sitemap/class-router.php#L40-L54

So I would try one of those three query_vars. Maybe sitemap_n:

/*
 * Cachify: Do note cache XML Sitemap Rank Math
 */
if (defined('CACHIFY_FILE')) {
    add_filter(
        'cachify_skip_cache',
            function() {
                global $wp_query;
                    return !empty($wp_query->query_vars["sitemap_n"]);
                }
        );
}

Can you please try this and report back if this works?

Thanks in advance!

All the best
Torsten
