Customize your sitemap page

You can change the title, description and look of your sitemap page from the app's settings. Go to Apps > Ongoing SEO Sitemap and click Manage Settings.

Page Title

The heading shown at the top of your sitemap page, for example "Sitemap". You need a page title to save your settings.

Page Description

A short line of text under the title. Use it to tell shoppers what the page is for. You can leave it empty.

Sitemap Layout

Choose how your links are shown:

• List shows each link on its own line, as a list. This is how your sitemap looks when you first install the app.

• Block shows the links next to each other in a paragraph, separated by a line ( | ).

Advanced Settings

This section holds the HTML code that builds your sitemap page. It's for people who are comfortable editing HTML. There are three boxes:

• Sitemap Code: the layout of the whole page.

• Single Item Code: the code for each link.

• View More Code: the code for the View More link at the end of long sections.

The code uses placeholders in square brackets, like [sitemap-title] and [sitemap-products]. The app swaps these for your real content. If you remove a placeholder, that content won't show on your page.

Be careful here. A mistake in this code can break the look of your sitemap page. If you're not sure, leave it alone or ask us for help. If you empty a box and save, the app uses its default code for that box.

Save your changes

Click Save at the bottom of the page. The button is greyed out until you change something. When it works, you'll see Settings updated successfully! Changes can take about a minute to show on your sitemap page. Click Cancel to leave without saving.

Good to know

• Clicking List or Block replaces all the code in Advanced Settings with that layout's default code. If you've edited the code, copy it somewhere safe first.

• How your sitemap looks also depends on your theme's fonts and colors.
