# Magnolia-cms sitemap module
Adds sitemap to your website in .html and .xml formats with ease. Sitemaps are used by search engines to better understand the structure of your website.
## Installation
**Magnolia CLI**
Run in Magnolia's folder:
```bash
mgnl install sitemap-magnolia
```
**Git**
Clone [magnolia sitemap](https://git.magnolia-cms.com/users/kraiskub/repos/sitemap/browse) repository into Magnolia's light modules folder.
## Usage
To add sitemap page follows these steps:
1. Log in to your Magnolia website
2. Create page under your home page and use “Sitemap” template to this page
3. Sitemap was created in both .html and .xml formats for you.
To preview sitemap navigate to url of the page you just created.
**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:
```freemarker
[#assign excludedTemplates = ['sitemap:pages/sitemap']] // Add names of templates you want to exclude to this array
```
### Change 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:
```freemarker
[#assign priority = (9 - (slashCount?size - initialSlashCount))/10] // Adjust this algorithm to change priority values
```
