Does that happen with W3 Total Cache Deactivated?

Esmi. isn’t this my own topic? What are you saying?

Try this: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/fix-the-white-xml-sitemap-errors-caused-by-non-working-xsl?replies=4

SO I just PERMANENTLY fixed my problem (I hope). If your sitemap comes across as html (per google) or simply is white try THIS:

In W3 Total Cache under Browser Cache, uncheck “Prevent caching of objects after settings change “. IT WORKS!!!

Google can read it. I just checked in Webmaster Tools. Just not formatted with a stylesheet now. ??

I noticed in another string to edit the sitemap.xml to delete the XML stylesheet. I was ASTONISHED to see that the following line was the top line in that file:

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?><?xml-stylesheet type=”text/xsl” href=”https://www.tabletraven.com/wp-content/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/sitemap.xsl&#8221;?><!– generator=”wordpress/2570″ –>

I had been playing with the google-sitemap-generator two weeks ago and had deleted it in favor of W3 Total Cache. Apparently it left the call to the non-existent stylesheet in the xml file.

Bottom line is I deleted that line and now I have sitemaps…..sort of…they still look like this:
https://www.tabletraven.com/sitemap_index.xml

Well if you change themes then the incorrect blog post page will be edited, or am I missing something? My theme is UVC (Ultimate Video Creator) and I see nothing.

Same issue. SEO Yoast is telling me “The keyword doesn’t appear in the first paragraph of the copy” when in fact I have my focus keyword spread liberally throughout my post. Can someone look at https://tabletraven.com/ and look at the Galaxy Note 10.1 post (the keyword is “galaxy note review”. Then look at the Microsoft Surface Pro post (the keyword is “windows 8 tablet”). SEO Yoast is telling me the Microsoft post is fine and the Galaxy Note 10.1 doesn’t have the keyword in the first paragraph.

Check again. By the way, can you please provide EXACT instructions on how to obtain “Facebook Application ID For meta (Info)”. Your “info” link just goes to the front page of the developers website.

One other thing. I can’t seem to create an object type of “blog”? Should I just use an “Article” type object in my app?

I just noticed one other thing (UNRELATED). Someone hacked the top left Like icon (default) in your control panel. PLEASE FIX IT!

I can’t find the /tmp directory. Could you please provide a path?

Thanks to kevquirk!! I am on godaddy with a windows based shared hosting account. for those of you in the same situation the blank master.php goes in the main host /wp-content/w3tc-config directory, NOT the directory of your domains that you have underneath.

Also after doing that all of my plugins were disabled and Total Cache asked me for my root host name and password and ftp security access type so it could do some housecleaning. I entered that info and after a few refreshes the Plugin activated. I had to go back and activate everything else but I consider that par for the course when you are working with caches.

Everything is fine now.

Thanks Frederick. I already found that out. My WP blogs are SCREAMING. Of course I had to disable JETPACK entirely. NO big loss.
