Steve ChristianAs promised the response from Yoast. They seem to be saying there isn’t a problem or if there was we needed to refresh the sitemap by disabling and then enabling it again, which should have forced the permalink structures through. What do you think? The following is in response to your previous response to me. I copied to them.
** YOAST SUPPORT RESPONSE **
The Connections developer responded there might be 2 possible bugs. We will address them accordingly:
1. By removing the trailing slash on any of the default options by using the Custom Structure, the 62 URLs would be in the sitemap. Removing the trailing slash at the end shouldn’t make any difference for the sitemap structure or the sitemap generated. See point 2 for more information.
2. The sitemap did not seem to respect the selected permalink structure. Our plugin should pick up the Custom Structure and update the sitemap accordingly as soon as the permalink structure is saved. If it does not, you can try to force the sitemap to update by disabling the sitemap and re-enabling it afterward via “SEO -> XML Sitemaps”. If the issue still persists, please run a conflict check.
