The XML sitemap that comes bundled with your SiteFarm site includes the default content types we offer and dynamically adds content you create based on those page types. However, if you create your own custom content types, you'll need to let your site know to look for them in your site's configuration so they can be included when the sitemap.xml file is built and displayed, which aids in site navigation, accessibility, and SEO results and rankings.

Add your custom content type to your sitemap

1. Navigate to Manage » Configuration » Search and Metadata section » Simple XML Sitemap.
2. Directly under the Simple XML Sitemap title, change the tab focus from Sitemaps to Inclusion.
3. Under the Entity Type title, look for Content and click its Configure button.
4. On the Configure Content entity type page, locate your content type in the list and click on its tab.
5. Change the radio button setting to Index entities of type <content type name> in sitemap Default.
6. Once you select the Index radio button, additional optional settings will become available:
   • Priority
   • Change frequency

     Note, all the provide content types that come bundled in SiteFarm use the default configuration settings offered.
7. Check the box Regenerate all sitemaps after hitting Save.
8. Click the Save configuration button to finish.
