    My site is multilingual using WPML and therefore has multiple sitemaps. Since I can only specify one sitemap for the crawler I created a custom sitemap index:

    <sitemapindex xmlns="https://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
    <sitemap>
    <loc>https://ways.se/sv/wp-sitemap.xml</loc>
    </sitemap>
    <sitemap>
    <loc>https://ways.se/en/wp-sitemap.xml</loc>
    </sitemap>
    </sitemapindex>

    However when running the crawler it or refreshing the map it only seem to follow the first sitemap in the index.

    Is there another way to crawl a multilingual site / site with multiple sitemaps?

    Side note: WPML thinks this splitting of sitemaps is a non issue since search engines will follow the langhref attributes on pages in the default language’s sitemap anyway. LiteSpeed Crawler does not seem to do this however.
