A page that is set to draft, still appears in sitemap

[ad_1]

Hello,

Recently I checked the sitemap of my site and I saw on top a page with the guid. As most pages are have “pretty links” based on their title, this was a bit odd.

Long story sort, the page was the blog page that was set to draft from when the site opened. So I went to the page and under the visibility tab I set it to noindex/noarchive etc.

The question is, how is it possible that a page that is set to draft still appear on the search results? The page is still not accessible in the first place, for anyone.

The page was not set under the settings of wordpress either.

Let me know your thoughts.

Best Regards
