My sitemap is blank, whats wrong?
First, determine whether you have a blank or an empty sitemap. A blank sitemap is basically a white screen with no header, no links, nothing at all. An empty sitemap shows the
sitemap header but contains no links.
Blank Sitemaps
A blank sitemap is basically a white screen with no header, no links, nothing at all. There could be several things wrong.
Sitemap Source Code
Check whether the source of the sitemap shows you the data you would expect in an XML sitemap. Not sure how to see the source code, follow the steps in this
article.
If the sitemap source code is empty, you may have a static file, theme or plugin conflict. Please
check for theme or plugin conflicts and, if no conflicts are found, FTP into your site to locate and remove any static sitemap files.
Sitemap Stylesheet
If the sitemap source code contains data, make sure the XSL file, linked in the very top of the XML file, is available. Sometimes this file gets blocked by
.htaccess prevention of the
wp-content directory.
You can find your XSL stylesheet by
viewing your sitemap_index.xml and
looking at the source code.
Then find the XSL stylesheet URL at the top and view it. You may need to copy/paste it into the browser.

If the XSL file loads then something else is causing the error. If it does not load, it may be blocked. You should speak to your host provider and confirm nothing in your .
htaccess file is preventing it from loading.
Cache Issue
If you have a cache plugin or server side cache, please flush the cache. If the issue remains, please disable and re-enable the sitemap feature (
steps here) to force a cache reset.
Most cache plugins allow you to exclude the sitemap URLs from being cached and/or minified. Please read this
article for more information on sitemap cache.
Invalid XML Code
Open the sitemap and the sitemap stylesheet in Firefox to see if any errors display. If an error displays, please read this
article about common sitemap errors.
Mismatched Site URLs
Yoast SEO uses the WordPress site URLs to generate the sitemap. In rare cases, these URLs may not match the preferred URL format of your site.
- Log in to your WordPress website.
When youre logged in, you will be in your Dashboard. - Click on Settings.
On the left-hand side, you will see a menu. In that menu, click on Settings. - Click on General.
The Settings menu will expand providing you additional options. Click on General.
Check the WordPress Address (URL) and the Site Address (URL).
The URLs should use the preferred http/https and www/non-www format that your site is setup to use.
Empty Sitemap
An empty sitemap shows the
sitemap header but contains no links. The most common reason for an empty sitemap is no matched data and this typically happens with specialty sitemaps like the video and news sitemaps.
Empty News Sitemap
If your news sitemap is empty, you probably havent published anything recently. Per the
Google guidelines, your news sitemap should contain only URLs for your articles published in the last two days.
Empty Video Sitemap
If your video sitemap is empty, the Video SEO plugin has not located any videos on your site. Please ensure you have
set up the plugin correctly including the initial re-index of your videos to locate videos that were posted prior to the plugin activation. If the sitemap remains empty after re-indexing videos, please
check for theme or plugin conflicts.
