Sitemap.xml

This app creates the sitemap.xml file for your site. It includes the required tags of a sitemap.xml (<loc>, <lastmod>, <changefreq> and <priority>). The app's features are very basic, so sending pull requests are encouraged.

The app has a setting to add any number of content types and their change frequency and priority to the sitemap.xml file. It also adds a controller mapping to the path of sitemap.xml on the root of the site - [yoursite.something]/sitemap.xml.

Be aware that only content from the current site will be added to a site's sitemap.

Defaults

The <priority> tag has the default value of 0.5.

The site content itself will be added automatically with a priority set to 1.0 and changeFrequency set to hourly. If you want to overwrite these defaults, please add portal:site as a mapping manually and customize the settings.

Specification

Check out Sitemaps XML format to learn more about how it all works.
