    So basically i have set new website, set everything and… my xml sitemap looks like this:

    – it’s only 9 items even while i have 22 published posts and pages in total. No matter what i choose in settings it’s always same outcome.

    I have checked everything properly in indexing options(one of the categories is completely ignored for some reason) and tbh i have no idea what’s wrong. I know that TSF provides only basic xml sitemap but i would really like not to install another plugin just to create one xml file :\

    Any help in that matter would be much appreciated.

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

    Hi Nikodemsky,

    I find it odd that /home/ and / (root page) are the same page, but only /home/ allows The SEO Framework to output its metatags.

    Please perform these steps:

    1. Go to SEO Settings > General Settings > Exclusions, and uncheck everything there. Save settings (even if you didn’t change anything).
    2. Go to WordPress’s Settings > General Settings > And make sure the WordPress Address and Site Address are filled in accordingly (i.e., https://howto.moe).
    3. Go to WordPress’s Settings > Reading > Your homepage displays. And make sure both dropdowns have assigned a page.
    4. Go to WordPress’s Settings > Permalinks and hit “Save Changes” there.

    That should fix the “/home/”-problem, but that’s not why you’re here. Browsing your site, it looks like only 9 pages (excl. categories) are published on your site, which is also the number of pages in your sitemap. What am I missing? Could you link me to a page that isn’t in the sitemap? Thank you!

    Done, after all of that it looked liked that:

    exclusions are grayed out:

    – so i couldn’t do anything with them even if i wanted to :\

    I’m running my website on latest wp/tsf + php 8.0 if that matters.

    Hi Nikodemsky,

    Thank you for displaying the data! Everything looks good to me.

    From here, it doesn’t seem anything’s missing from the sitemap. All posts I was able to navigate to naturally were also listed in the sitemap.

    Could you link me to a page that isn’t — but should be — in the sitemap? Perhaps we’re dealing with a plugin conflict, but I do not know where to look. Thank you!
