Hello,
First deactivate the Sitemap functions, clear cache and then reactivate the Sitemap functions & voilá the error 404 is gone! if not, add this to the .htaccess file:
<ifmodule mod_rewrite.c="">RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 [L]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 [L]</ifmodule>cheers!

It should be checked. I did notice my site took a little while to actually generate the sitemaps after installing Yoast.
-
Yes this box is checked and it gives me the options then. Should it not be checked?
-
You have checked the box "to enable XML sitemap functionality" ? In the Yoast SEO XML Sitemap settings.

Index SEO Performance
Hi guys, I was wondering if there is a difference in SEO performance between a page which ends with .html or just with a slash. For example: www.domain.com/test/ - www.domain.com/test.html Which one is better? And is there a difference between productpages and productcategory pages. Because we see mostly productpages ending with .html and category pages ending with a slash. Take a look at some big dutch companies like: http://www.coolblue.nl/

Sitemap Help!
Hi Guys, Quick question regarding sitemaps. I am currently working on a huge site that has masses of pages. I am looking to create a site map. How would you guys do this? i have looked at some tools but it say it will only do up to 30,000 pages roughly. It is so large it would be impossible to do this myself....any suggestions? Also, how do i find out how many pages my site actually has indexed and not indexed?? Thank You all Wayne
