Monica	Good afternoon, we have noticed that there are duplicate links in this sitemap generated by Yoast: hidden link It seems that the links of your translations are not being interpreted correctly and generates the same for the rest of the languages. We see that this problem was already consulted and solved privately in this thread: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/yoast-seo-wpml-create-duplicates-in-sitemap/ Can you please provide us with a solution to this problem? Thank you very much.

Ahmed Mohammed Supporter Timezone: Africa/Cairo (GMT+03:00)	Hi Monica, Thank you for contacting WPML support! I have checked the sitemap you provided, and I was able to confirm the issue you’re describing as having duplicate entries in the sitemap. The issue is happening because the WPML SEO glue plugin isn’t installed on the website, as explained in this tutorial: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/using-wordpress-seo-with-wpml/. You can download the plugin for the downloads page from your WPML account. Hope that helps, and let us know if you have any other questions. We would be happy to assist further.

Ahmed Mohammed Supporter Timezone: Africa/Cairo (GMT+03:00)	Hi Monica, Sorry for not being clear! It's the WPML SEO plugin. I called it a glue plugin as it is needed to integrate Yoast SEO with WPML. Hope that helps, and let us know if you have any other questions. We would be happy to assist further.
