divi wpml

Hi there!

Search engines don’t need the sitemap; they’ll find your pages as you (or other sites) link to them. However, they do want hreflang tags for localization, which WPML outputs for you. For more information, please see: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/189077?hl=en

We shouldn’t combine different localizations in the sitemaps unless we tell the search engine to which language they belong to. For more information, please see: https://github.com/sybrew/the-seo-framework/issues/69

Now, The SEO Framework generates a sitemap for each locale independently. In your case, the URL for the Indonesian sitemap would be: example.com/sitemap.xml?lang=id

You can submit each sitemap to Google and Bing via their webmaster interface.

I hope this helps! Cheers ??

thanks for the above

1. we can now see the sitemap for other language as per your advice

2. we are using divi theme and do have an issue with the ‘projects’ post type [note that the slug is changed and translated]

a) there is no sitemap!…
b) tsw thinks that projects are set to noindex which they are not!

fyi – this is on staging site

now fixed i think

I’m glad you’ve found a solution! Feel free to follow up if you’re still encountering issues ?? Cheers!
