    For some unknown reason, Google Search Console has indexed an unwanted number of pages.
    I would like to remove the current sitemap and insert a new one with a different name, in order to encourage the algorithm to perhaps correct the error.
    Is there any way to change the name of the sitemap? If not, could you put this filter in your wished features list?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @fredericobt ,

    Currently, we don’t support changing sitemap name, because the name sitemap.xml is widely used. Changing it doens’t make the indexed pages go away. To ensure it doesn’t index unwanted pages, you might need to check the “Hide from search results” checkbox when editing pages, or modify the query args for the sitemap to exclude them automatically.
