Need to fix issue with GSC sitemap “theme default template”

Hi everyone,

My name is Naila, and I run a blog called Simply Zen Living. I’m quite new to SEO and technical website stuff, so I’m hoping someone here can guide me.

I was checking my sitemap in Google Search Console and noticed something odd — it’s showing “theme default template” in the sitemap instead of actual content pages.

I’m using the Newspaper theme on my WordPress site, and it seems like the sitemap is pulling in the theme’s default template rather than actual URLs or posts.

Here’s a screenshot attached for reference.

Has anyone faced something similar or know how I can fix this issue? Any help would be truly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Naila.
