  • It will be difficult to help without a link to the exact one you're using and your own site data. However, the problem seems to just be that the first line of the xml file is appearing somewhere else, maybe you can edit the file and remove <xml references anywhere except for the first line.

    For some reason you have 26 lines before <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> at the start of your xml file.

    I run the same sitemap, works fine.

    Delete the current sitemap plugin then download a fresh copy of the plugin, see If that helps.
