18 The module generates a multilingual XML sitemap which adheres to Google's new
19 hreflang standard. Out of the box the sitemap is able to index most of Drupal's
20 content entity types including:
28 Contributed entity types like commerce products or media entities can be indexed
29 as well. On top of that custom links can be added to the sitemap.
31 To learn about XML sitemaps, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitemaps.
37 See https://www.drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-8
38 for instructions on how to install or update Drupal modules.
44 The module permission 'administer sitemap settings' can be configured under
45 /admin/people/permissions.
47 Initially only the home page is indexed in the sitemap. To include content into
48 the sitemap, visit /admin/config/search/simplesitemap/entities to enable support
49 for entity types of your choosing. Entity types which feature bundles can then
50 be configured on a per-bundle basis, e.g.
52 * /admin/structure/types/manage/[content type] for nodes
53 * /admin/structure/taxonomy/manage/[taxonomy vocabulary] for taxonomy terms
54 * /admin/structure/menu/manage/[menu] for menu items
57 When including an entity type or bundle into the sitemap, the priority setting
58 can be set which will set the 'priority' parameter for all entities of that
59 type. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sitemaps to learn more about this
62 Inclusion and priority settings of bundles can be overridden on a per-entity
63 basis. Just head over to a bundle instance edit form (e.g. node/1/edit) to
64 override its sitemap settings.
66 If you wish for the sitemap to reflect the new configuration instantly, check
67 'Regenerate sitemap after clicking save'. This setting only appears if a change
68 in the settings has been detected.
70 As the sitemap is accessible to anonymous users, bear in mind that only links
71 will be included which are accessible to anonymous users.
73 To include custom links into the sitemap, visit
74 /admin/config/search/simplesitemap/custom.
76 The settings page can be found under admin/config/search/simplesitemap.
77 Here the module can be configured and the sitemap can be manually regenerated.
83 The sitemap is accessible to the whole world under /sitemap.xml.
85 If the cron generation is turned on, the sitemap will be regenerated on every
88 A manual generation is possible on admin/config/search/simplesitemap.
90 The sitemap can be also generated via drush: Use the command
91 'drush simple_sitemap-generate'.
97 It is possible to hook into link generation by implementing
98 hook_simple_sitemap_links_alter(&$links){} in a custom module and altering the
