We just changed our Joomla site from http to https.

However, the <loc> lines of the generated sitemaps (for Google) still show http as the protocol such as:
<loc>http://www.[our domain]/en/restaurants/244355-tgi-friday-s</loc>.

I assumed that the sitemaps would show https as our Joomla "Global Configuration" is set to "Force HTTPS".

When I noticed that the sitemaps were still showing http instead of https in the sitemap <loc> fields I changed the JSitemap setting as follows:

Advanced Settings -> Custom sitemap domain -> https://www.[our domain]

Still no change to the sitemaps.

Have I overlooked something?

Thanks. -- Rik

Hello RIk,

it means that the sitemap is cached.

Just clear all the caches in Joomla to refresh it with the new domain.

Obviously if you used the precaching, you have to redo the process to refresh sitemaps.

Best,

Hi John,

That fixed it!

Thank you. -- Rik
