Sitemap in multi site nginx showing 404 not found

Hey @heenathakkar,

Hope you’re well.

I installed fresh WordPress multisite with subfolder installation and looks like all sitemaps work normally. For example, I can reach maindomain.com/sitemap.xml file and maindomain.com/examplesubsite/sitemap.xml file too. So to replicate the problem I need more information.

Can you tell us, how is your multisite installed? Are your subsites using default URLs or mapped domains? Also, can you try to flush permalinks settings from subsite? You need to go to Settings > Permalinks page from your subsite dashboard and click save changes button.

Thanks for reply.

Sub sites are having mapped domains. So all the URLs are individual. For example, site1.com/sitemap.xml, site2.com/sitemap.xml, etc

And in all sites respective uploads folder there is sitemap.xml file. So I think rewrite rule is missing?

Tried refreshing permalinks but still not working.

I am using this with nginx server.

Thanks

Hey @heenathakkar,

Hope you’re well.

I am making some tests for this feature, sorry for the delay here. But as soon as I got more information about the problem or fix, I will inform you through this thread. Thank you for your patience!

Hey @wpmudev-support8,

Hope you’re well.

I tried on my test sites with mapped domains but I couldn’t replicate the same problem. So maybe this is because of some other plugins conflicting. Is that possible to try plugin and theme conflict test?

For plugin conflict, you should deactivate all plugins and only try with SmartCrawl. If it solves the problem, try activating plugins one by one until replicate the problem.

For theme conflict, you should activate Twenty Seventeen theme and check the plugin again.
