Hi,

I have verified the sitemap.xml file once published and I observe that the urls have two slashes for each page, like that:

```auto
<loc>https://abzzz.abourdon.fr//index.php</loc>

```

or

```auto
<loc>https://abzzz.abourdon.fr//page/index.php</loc>

```

Are you aware of that?

Thanks for reporting this @annebourdon, I’ve added a ticket for it and will get it fixed up soon.

Cheers!

@tpbradley

is it possible to dispense with the index.php/index.html at the end of the sitemap in future? And only use the canonical URL or the url+path?

otherwise there are always error messages in the google search console.

Yes, should be able to do that. I’ll add it to the ticket!

Yep, that shouldn’t be a problem. I’m fairly certain the code for the sitemap is still shared between the two apps.
