Hello!

Odd as it is the customer want's to add a sitemap page for visitors (html, with the whole structure of the page). I found out that 4SEO can't do that, but I want it to be the component which builds the xml sitemap at least.

So I'm thinking of adding a second sitemap extension to do just the html visitor page creation.

Thanks again!
Chris

P.S.: By the way: happy and successfull new year 2024 to you. It's still early in 2024 so I hope it counts... ;-)

There cannot be any conflict because an HTML "sitemap" is just a page on your website. It serves no purpose other than possibly help your visitors find a page but HTML sitemaps have nothing to do and not used for SEO.

I found out that 4SEO can't do that,

Correct, and it will never will. HTML sitemaps have no SEO purpose or utilitity and so they are outside of 4SEO scope. In addition, I have found and experienced that needing them is usually the sign of some kind of failure in a website navigation more than anything.

I totally get that and would put it the same way..
However, clients get's what they want, especially when they do not understand thing...
