    In my sitemap, the last modified dates for the translations of my homepage are both blank. The pages in questions are https://voxy.com/es/ and https://voxy.com/pt-br/. They’ve been updated many times but the last modified date is not catching.

    When I look in Google Search Console, it says these pages are not indexed by Google. What could be the issue here?

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

    Whereas the XML Sitemap should dynamically update after any modification to it, if the site or server is caching the sitemap this can cause it to not update right away. We also have additional information on this at the following link: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/sitemap-does-not-update/.

    If you are not seeing the sitemap’s images as updated, we would recommend checking your caching settings and to ensure that the sitemap is being excluded from the cache.

    If you are still experiencing an issue with the sitemap’s images not updating after checking your caching settings, you can also force a cache reset by temporarily disabling the sitemap feature, and then re-enabling. To do so please perform the following steps:

    ​In WordPress go to SEO>General>Features
    ​For ‘XML Sitemaps’ Toggle the switch to ‘Disabled.’
    ​​Click ‘Save Changes.’
    ​Toggle the switch back to ‘Enabled.’
    ​Click ‘Save Changes.’

    ​We also have a guide on how to enable/disable XML Sitemaps here: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/enable-xml-sitemaps-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/
