sitemap.xml for languages is invalid

[sumitramanga]

I think the formatting for the site maps is incorrect.

/en/sitemap.xml /fr/sitemap.xml and any other language should follow this XML structure:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
  <url>
    <loc>https://blog.autohive.com/en/example-post</loc>
    <lastmod>2025-06-09</lastmod>
  </url>
  <!-- repeat for each post/page -->
</urlset>

The index root sitemap.xml is valid. E.g. - https://demo.gethugothemes.com/bookworm/site/sitemap.xml

Can you please help me validate your site map works or with this theme ?

Hey @sumitramanga, the free theme is only available in the English language.

You can check the sitemap.xml of this theme:
