Issues when disabling posts (URLs of disabled blog posts are still saved in sitemaps)

[julianmurillosd]

For two store views (FR and EN), there have been some posts configured and created.

When the post are disabled, the URLs are still saved in the respective sitemaps (even after having generated the sitemaps), which makes Google create a warning that some submitted URLs are not being found.

Preconditions: Magento: 2.3.4 PHP: 7.3 MySQL: 5.6

Hi @viethung512

I tested it and it works; however, I notice that these adjustments create conflicts, which makes this issue appear again https://github.com/mageplaza/magento-2-blog/issues/182 (Issue 182 is about blog URLs that are created for all store views (and stored in the sitemaps), which also generates google warnings when blogs are assigned to only one store view).

Kind regards,

Hello, I have a similar issue if you can advise - the previous solution of appending addFieldToFilter('enabled', ['eq' => 1]); works perfectly when a status other than "approved" is assigned. However for our purposes, we'd prefer to have posts hidden if the current date is prior to the publish date, and my team and I are unsure of how best to do this via Sitemap.php. I apologize in advance if this is something easy to solve - I've been looking for an answer here on github and in forums for a little while now, trying random things :)
