常见问题

What is a sitemap?

A sitemap is a file where you provide information about the pages and posts your site, and the relationships between them. Search engines read this file to more intelligently crawl your site. A sitemap tells the search engine which pages you think are important in your site, and also provides valuable information about these pages: for example, when the page was last updated, how often the page is changed, and any alternate language versions of a page.

Where can I find my XML sitemap?

You can typically access it at: https://yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml

How do I create an HTML sitemap page?

Create a new WordPress page and insert the gutenberg block from the editor.

Can I exclude certain content types?

Yes. You can exclude posts, pages, taxonomies, and custom post types via the settings.

Does the plugin support multilingual sites?

Yes — the plugin fully supports Polylang and can add language-specific tags to the sitemaps.

Does this plugin collect any data?

No. Companion Sitemap Generator does not track, send, or store any personal data.

An excellent plugin – lean and efficient, and easy to configure. The .htaccess file editor is most convenient.
