 * Hi there, I am trying to edit our Yoast sitemap. I use SEMrush to audit our site
   and you can see the following issues come up. I have these [4 pages](https://ibb.co/1Z1xGCw)
   that are called out here, redirecting using 301. Should these be using a different
   redirect code? Can anyone pin point the issue and how to resolve? Thanks in advance

 * Hi [@tylerspice](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tylerspice/),
 * We checked the redirect codes and they’re the correct ones to use. See [Which redirect should I use?](https://yoast.com/which-redirect/).
 * The problem seems to be that you have pages that redirect to other pages in the
   sitemaps. Ideally, you only want to have the final URL in the sitemaps.
 * If we look at one of the redirects, since /products/spiceology-5-panel-strap-
   back-hat/ redirects to /loyalty-program/, there may not be a need for this product
   page to be included in the sitemap.
 * To solve the problem, you can edit each of the redirected pages in the report
   and change the “Show in Search Results” setting to “No” You can find more information
   in this guide: [How do I noindex URLs?](https://yoast.com/help/how-do-i-noindex-urls/).
 * For example, the /order-history/ and /account-profile/ pages redirect to the 
   WordPress login. Search engines can’t index pages behind a login, so you can 
   safely mark them as “noindex”.
 * If you remove these redirected pages from the sitemaps, does this solve the problem?
