All we’re doing with this fix is telling the server to redirect the requests for the sitemaps to PHP. To get it working with the news module you’ll have to: * 1. Find the sitemap name 2. Find the PHP query string it should be redirected to 3. Figure out the rewrite rule and add it your server block * I haven’t used the news module so I don’t know what those things are, contacting the plugin author might be easiest: [http://yoast.com/contact/](http://yoast.com/contact/) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Yoast SEO - Advanced SEO with real-time guidance and built-in AI] [Plugin: WordPress SEO by Yoast] FIX for sitemap_index.xml 404 error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-fix-for-sitemap_indexxml-404-error/) * [Jono Warren](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nmec/) * (@nmec) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-fix-for-sitemap_indexxml-404-error/#post-2352249) * Kredacter, * You should insert the code in the server block for the site you want it work on, in my case I have multiple sites on one server so use multiple config files in my `sites-available` folder. You may have a single site configured in your main `nginx.conf`. * So your server block should look something like this: * ``` server { server_name YourDomain.com; root /var/www/YourDomain/public; # Fix Yoast SEO Sitemaps rewrite ^/sitemap_index\.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 last; rewrite ^/([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?\.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 last; } ``` * Then you just need to tell nginx to re-read it’s config files. In Ubuntu use the command `service nginx reload`. Hope that helps. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Yoast SEO - Advanced SEO with real-time guidance and built-in AI] [Plugin: WordPress SEO by Yoast] FIX for sitemap_index.xml 404 error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-fix-for-sitemap_indexxml-404-error/) * [Jono Warren](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nmec/) * (@nmec) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-fix-for-sitemap_indexxml-404-error/#post-2352246) * Hmm, maybe something to do with `fastcgi_intercept_errors`? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Yoast SEO - Advanced SEO with real-time guidance and built-in AI] [Plugin: WordPress SEO by Yoast] Category exclude from sitemap](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-category-exclude-from-sitemap/) * [Jono Warren](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nmec/) * (@nmec) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-category-exclude-from-sitemap/#post-1971704) * +1 For this. Excluding categories from the sitemap only seems to exclude the category from the category-sitemap, not the posts in that category from the posts- sitemap.

I’ve adapted it for use with nginx, just add the following to the server block: * ``` rewrite ^/sitemap_index\.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 last; rewrite ^/([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?\.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 last; ``` * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WordPress Beta Tester] [Plugin: WordPress Beta Tester] Doesn't work for 3.3 beta1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-beta-tester-doesnt-work-for-33-beta1/) * [Jono Warren](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nmec/) * (@nmec) * [14 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-beta-tester-doesnt-work-for-33-beta1/#post-2341251) * Yup, same here. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[W3 Total Cache] [Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Fingerprinting minified files](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-w3-total-cache-fingerprinting-minified-files/) * Thread Starter [Jono Warren](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nmec/) * (@nmec) * [14 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-w3-total-cache-fingerprinting-minified-files/#post-1994204) * Brilliant, thanks for letting me know.
