    Hi,

    what are you using to generate the sitemap?

    I have no idea where they are picking up those wrong URLs… They are nowhere to be found on your website.

    One big mistake I see is in your locations. It seems to be totally wrong.

    I see a location called All (shouldn’t exists), I see Bologna, Emilia Romagna (should be Bologna) and many other things look wrong in there.

    If you provide admin credentials I’ll tell you more.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    there are plenty of wrong locations.

    Country, Region and City name must be identical to what Google Maps API provides.

    all, Piemonte, Italia
    Bologna, Emilia-Romagna, Italia (twice, just merge them)
    Collegno, all, Italia
    Ferno, all, Italia

    and so on…

    I don’t know where Yoast SEO is picking up those URLs, I know I don’t get this type of errors.

    I’ll ask to Stiofan to have a look and see if it’s anything obivous that I’m missing.

    Thanks

    I don’t really understand the paste, do all your pages have a broken link to the login page?

    It is not google finding them is the plugin generating the sitemap and as I told you, you should really ask for support to them, not to us.

    If asking them, they’ll tell you where and how thier plugin is finding those faulty URLs and it is effectively GD’s fault, than we will correct whatever they say it is not correct.

    But as of now, it seems like the problem isn’t coming from GD.

    Thank you
