Hi..my sitemap is:

Thanks

Hello, is it work with wordpress version 5.4.2 and litespeed cache plugin? Please reply me, thank you.
Can I add my sub-sitemap?

@bjornjohansen I'm going to create a Composer package for cache warmup and would like to use parts of your code. Is this okay for you? Of course I'd add a source link to this gist file :)
