Yii2 Sitemap

The module polls supported data models and displays links to their representations for front-ends and search engines.

You can expand or replace the list of supported models through the module configuration. In your model class, which you include in the site map module, you need to provide a selection by publication status (for example), as well data models must have the required public attribute in_sitemap and public methodgetPublished()which should return models with such required keys as: url, updated_at.

Autogenerated sitemap resolving at http://example.com/sitemap.xml

Sitemap module monitors the saving, changing or deleting event for the supported models and clean the cache which the site map is formed, thus actualizing it. In addition, you can add/edit and delete the URL of sitemap in manual mode.

Be careful when adding URLs manually for pages of dynamic content, since by deleting such a resource the link to it will still be on the site map.

This module is an integral part of the Butterfly.СMS content management system, but can also be used as an standalone extension.
