@databell96 We’re sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue. We understand that you have received a notification saying that ‘Because of a change in your Home URL setting, some of your SEO data needs to be reprocessed’. We know this can be alarming, so we’d be happy to clarify this for you.
The Yoast SEO plugin now detects any Home URL or permalink structure changes and since it’s a significant change, Yoast SEO needs to rerun the SEO data optimization. Sometimes you may not have changed anything related to the notice, but you are seeing the notification, and it’s confusing for you and we apologize for this.
If you use the Yoast Helper Tool does the issue resolve and that notification go away?
Please try the steps below:
-
i. Install & activate the Yoast Test Helper plugin: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/yoast-test-helper/
ii. Go to Tools -> Yoast Test
iii. Locate the Yoast SEO section and select the “Reset indexables tables & migrations” button
iv. Click the “Optimize SEO Data” button in the Yoast SEO->Tools section.We look forward to your reply.

@aquilazo We’re sorry that you are getting the error “Either ‘name’ or ‘item.name’ should be specified” in your Google Search Console related to the Yoast-generated breadcrumbs.
This warning typically occurs when the breadcrumb schema markup does not have a title. This could mean that either the page itself doesn’t have a defined title (appears as (no title) in the page overview), or has an empty breadcrumb title.
Would it be possible for you to edit that specific page and set a breadcrumb title, save the changes, and then rerun the URL through Google’s Rich Results Tool and see if that resolves the issue? You can follow the steps in this article to set a breadcrumb title – https://yoast.com/help/the-breadcrumbs-title-setting/
@miguelenrique We’re sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue on your site.
We checked on your site and see that you are using Yoast SEO Premium. If you have purchased SEO Premium you would need to contact us directly at [email protected] for assistance as this forum is reserved for support of the free version of Yoast SEO.
Thank you for your understanding.
@blue_life Thanks for your reply.
The main reason a URL wouldn’t appear in the sitemap is that it’s setting for ‘Show in search results’ to ‘No’ either in the Yoast SEO>Search Appearance area (where you can set this value for the entire content type or taxonomy) or for that individual page in the Yoast meta box that appears below the content when you are on the edit screen. When this value is set to ‘No’ it sets the robots meta tag to ‘noindex’ and the page/pages are removed from the sitemap.
Can you please check that for both of these that the ‘Show in search results’ setting is set to ‘Yes’?
We also have a guide on setting this value here: How do I noindex URLs?
@supergs Can you please let us know what the value of the sitemap URL that you submitted in Google Search Console was?
For example, did you submit
https://listbloc.com/sitemap_index.xml? Or was it a different value?Google Search Console will sometimes show the number of discovered URLs that it finds in the specific sitemap that was submitted, but not show the number it discovers on the child sitemaps that the
sitemap_index.xmllists, and Google subsequently crawls.According to Google, the sitemap being reported with 0 URLs discovered doesn’t necessarily indicate a problem. You can read more about this here. Most probably, Google needs some time to process the sitemap. And do keep in mind that Google Search Console reports are not real-time.
So we would like to suggest allowing some time for Google to process the sitemap. For a speedier resolution, you could delete the sitemap in Google Search Console and resubmit it again. Sometimes, it helps to fix the 0 discovered URLs notice faster.

@sa5awii92 Thanks for your reply.
We checked on your sitemap at https://dealinsi.com/sitemap_index.xml and were able to confirm that it does contain child sitemaps (such as https://dealinsi.com/post-sitemap.xml and https://dealinsi.com/page-sitemap.xml) and is being generated as expected (see image here).
As for the discovered URLs showing as 0 on the main sitemap_index.xml, this is due to the sitemap index only containing links to the child sitemaps and not URLs of the site’s pages, as those are contained within each of the respective child sitemaps.
If you aren’t seeing any URLs as discovered when inspecting the child sitemaps in Google Search Console, we’d recommend to first try removing the sitemap_index.xml and then resubmitting it.
@baksteendegeweldige Thanks for your reply and for confirming that the issue was due to a conflict with the Justified Image Grid plugin. We’re going ahead and setting this issue to resolved but if you should need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to let us know.
@rohit_gomgee You can limit the number of sitemap entries by using the filter
wpseo_sitemap_entries_per_page. Here follows example code to limit the max entries to 100:/* Limit the number of sitemap entries for Yoast SEO */ function max_entries_per_sitemap() { return 100; } add_filter( 'wpseo_sitemap_entries_per_page', 'max_entries_per_sitemap' );We also have more information on customizing the sitemap here, and you can also find the developer documentation on this here.
@wheelsofsteel Thanks for your reply.
We checked on the https://findings.co/my-company/ URL and this appears to be getting redirected to the the home page of https://findings.co/ when we visit it in the browser (see image here).
This is why you are receiving a warning that the page https://findings.co/my-company/ should not be included in the sitemap.
To resolve this, we’d recommend removing the redirect and then try rechecking the sitemap to see if the warning is then resolved.
@cnequips Thanks for your reply and for providing this information.
