Example of sitemap urls for both formats
https://www.my-site.com/sitemap.html - .html format
https://www.my-site.com/sitemap.xml - .xml format
localhost:
localhost:8080/home/sitemap.html - .html format
localhost:8080/home/sitemap.xml - .xml format
Configuration
Exclude templates from indexing
When excluding templates from indexing, each page on your site with this template will not be included in the sitemap.
To exclude templates from indexing to sitemap open your-project/light-modules/sitemap/includes/sitemap_macro.ftl in your favourite IDE and locate this line of code:
[#assign excludedTemplates = ['sitemap:pages/sitemap']] // Add names of templates you want to exclude to this arrayChange url priorities in .xml format
In .xml format of sitemap each url has a priority. Highest possible priority is 1, which is the root page. Every other "/" in the url descreases the priority by 0.1.
Example
https://www.my-site.com - priority 1
https://www.my-site.com/foo - priority 0.9
https://www.my-site.com/foo/bar - priority 0.8
localhost:
localhost:8080 - priority 1
localhost:8080/foo - priority 0.9
localhost:8080/foo/bar - priority 0.8
To configure priority values open your-project/light-modules/sitemap/templates/pages/sitemap-xml.ftl in your favourite IDE and locate this line of code:
[#assign priority = (9 - (slashCount?size - initialSlashCount))/10] // Adjust this algorithm to change priority values
