An additional sitemap The sitemap generated with The SEO Framework is sufficient for Search Engines to find posts, pages and supported custom post types throughout your website. It also listens to the “noindex” settings on each of the items and works great with various translation plugins. However, if you require a more expanded sitemap, feel free to activate a dedicated Sitemap plugin. The SEO Framework will automatically deactivate its Sitemap functionality when another (known) sitemap plugin is found. If it is not automatically detected and no notification has been provided in the Sitemap Settings, feel free to open a support ticket and it will be addressed carefully. Hidden breadcrumbs The Breadcrumb script generated by this plugin on Posts will also make sure Google easily finds related categories which aren’t included in the Sitemap of this plugin.
