    Hi Antoine, having the same problem – upgrading this plugin from the old (reliable!) version was a mistake, and seems to have killed my sitemap.html page (which was generated by the Dagon plugin).

    Did you find any solution to getting it back? Going back to the old version of XML Sitemaps did not work!

    Thanks

    Figured it out.

    When installing the 4.x version of this plugin, it adds some rewrite rules to the WordPress database that redirect any sitemap.html file…

    However, these rules do not get removed from your WP database after uninstallation of the plugin. They stay behind even though the plugin is gone, or downgraded back to the 3.x version with static sitemaps.

    The trick to fixing this is to manually flush WordPress’s redirect rules. It turns out all you have to do is visit the visit WP-Admin > Settings > Permalinks page. Then the plugin’s leftover rules will then be purged.

    Whew. Back to version 3.x which worked fine. I couldn’t even load the admin/setting page with version 4.x on nginx.
