Sitemap Generator Forum

I am trying to exclude URLs that are not of any benefit, and I tried to exclude the script from crawling those areas by putting them in the exclude URL's section, for example:

abc.com/wp-json/\*

I put the backslash because I had read that on another forum post that I needed to escape the wildcard character.

However, when I look at the sitemap, there are still URL's that have excluded names in them.

How do I properly exclude them?  Thank you for your help.

Hello,

you can use this in Exclude URLs setting:
wp-json/
