 * Ok, uploaded the sitemap.xml on my site, but Yoast is saying an error “…XML is
   not working properly”
 * How to fix?

 * Hi [@yury28](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yury28/),
 * If you have a sitemap that is located on example.com/sitemap.xml, your sitemap
   is not being generated by our Yoast SEO plugin. It is probably generated by Google
   XML Sitemaps or another XML sitemaps plugin. Please disable other sitemap plugins
   and remove any sitemap files via FTP before enabling the sitemaps in our plugin.
 * This [article](https://kb.yoast.com/kb/enable-xml-sitemaps-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/)
   will guide you how to enable XML Sitemaps in the Yoast SEO plugin.
