Opencart error xmlParseEntityRef: no name, rendering of the page

xmlParseEntityRef: no name

In Opencart we got the following error when we activated the Google Sitemap from Extensions>> Product Feed, then when we visited the google sitemap URL like Google Sitemap http://webocreation.com/index.php?route=feed/google_sitemap

This page contains the following errors:
error on line 1 at column 5844: xmlParseEntityRef: no name
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error

xmlParseEntityRef: no name
xmlParseEntityRef: no name

How to remove it?

Go to PHPMyAdmin of the site and choose the database that you are using and in the oc_url_alias table, “oc_ is the prefix of the table”, search for the & and replace with something else like ‘-‘ or ‘_’ etc and the above error will be removed.

Let me know if you get something else and for support.
