Hi, I have a feature request:

The sitemaps created by 4SEO contain backlinks to Weeblr.com. Unless I missed something, they cannot be removed.

Please add an option to remove them or, even better, simply remove them ;)

Kind regards,

Simon

Hi

Ah you mean in the stylesheet! You realize they are not in the sitemap file, right?

Sure, of course I know ;) I can imagine you were a bit shocked if you thought I meant that ;) Still, it's a publicly visible backlink and though it's a reliable authority, I'ld really prefer not to have any backlinks in my site that I have not consciously placed myself.

By the way, I only now have the time to check the 4SEO functionality after a very busy time. Good stuff for sure, but I may have a few questions or remarks coming your way in the coming weeks, I'm sure you don't mind.

Frankly I'm not sure what the problem is here, it certainly is not a backlink in the common SEO sense, as it's not crawled and this is also a common practice for all major sitemaps. I don't want to add anymore settings than is absolutely necessary so maybe I'll add a filter (many things are customized/ enhanced with filters in 4SEO).

Hi Yannick, a filter could be nice, as long as I can clean it up, thanks.

Hi

Cool. Althoug not complicated, that'll be something for next year as I try to use the last days of 2021 to make progress on 4SEF, our replacement for the SEF URLs part of sh404SEF.
