Google sitemap namespace confusion

2018-06-23 10:29:34

Here the structure of my sitemap:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
    <sitemap>
        <loc>somefile.xml</loc>
    </sitemap>
</sitemapindex>

somefile.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.9" xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<url>
  <loc>[some url]</loc>
  <link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="[some url]" />
  <link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="[some url]?lang=en" />
  <link rel="alternate" hreflang="fr" href="[some url]?lang=fr" />
  <priority>1.00</priority>
</url>

Here is Google's error message:

Your Sitemap or Sitemap index file doesn't properly declare the namespace. Expected: http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9 Found: http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml Tag: urlset

I guess I'm missing something, information on the Internet are confusing. What's is the right syntax? Thank you if you can help.

Problem solved by replace add the xhtml namespace to all the 'link' tags.

Replacing

<link

with

<xhtml:link

您应该将xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"添加到您的网址中：

<link rel="alternate" hreflang="en" href="[some url]" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" />
