I found the fix for this. It is to manually add urls on the settings page. Thanks!
Thanks Arnee, Forstly I have a website built on a wordpress theme. http://www.barkleyphoto.com
While the XML-Sitemep plugin is open, I click on the link to my sitemap and see the following:
URL of sub-sitemap Last modified (GMT)
http://mysite.com/sitemap-misc.xml 2014-06-05 01:03
http://mysite.com/sitemap-pt-post-2012-08.xml 2014-05-28 02:12
all other pages listed are simply blog posts.
None of my child pages of the website proper are listed in the sitemap. What am I missing?
