Hi
No, in the sitemap from today there are the second sitemaps not listed.
https://www.example.com/sitemap-4seo.xml
So I have to send the sitemap link to google from time to time, that the actual version will be indicated?
Best regards

Hi

There are 1000 URLs in each sub-file. So if some pages have been removed from the German sitemap, it may that before we needed 2 files but now one is enough.
That's all fine and having these 404s in the Search console is 100%, totally fine. What matters is what's in the sitemap files themselves.
So I have to send the sitemap link to google from time to time, that the actual version will be indicated?
You should NEVER send the sitemap to Google. When a new sitemap is updated or created, 4SEO pings Google automatically. There's nothing to do for you.
4SEO only submits the "index" sitemap (/sitemap-4seo.xml) and individual "sub-sitemaps" (/sitemap.de-DE.4seo.1.xml.gz, etc) are not supposed to be submitted. Only the index. Very important, do NOT submit them.
