In Search Console, why is the XML sitemap "issue" count 5x higher than the URL submission count?
-
Google Search Console is telling us that there are 5,193 sitemap "issues" - URLs that are present on the XML sitemap that are blocked by robots.txt
However, there are only 1,222 total URLs submitted on the XML sitemap. I only found 83 instances of URLs that fit their example description.
Why is the number of "issues" so high?
Does it compound over time as Google re-crawls the sitemap?

Hello, I just went through an issue like this. Are you using WordPress? Also, Do you have any SEO plug-ins installed?
