Index sitemaps (Optional)

📣 From next-sitemap v2.x onwards, sitemap.xml will be Index Sitemap. It will contain urls of all other generated sitemap endpoints.

Index sitemap generation can be turned off by setting generateIndexSitemap: false in next-sitemap config file. (This is useful for small/hobby sites which does not require an index sitemap) (Example: no-index-sitemaps)

Splitting large sitemap into multiple files

Define the sitemapSize property in next-sitemap.config.js to split large sitemap into multiple files.

/** @type {import('next-sitemap').IConfig} */
module.exports = {
  siteUrl: 'https://example.com',
  generateRobotsTxt: true,
  sitemapSize: 7000,
}
