<p><strong>Lightweight Sitemap Generator</strong> is a minimal yet powerful WordPress plugin that creates a valid XML sitemap for search engines (Google, Yandex and others), fully compliant with <a href="https://www.sitemaps.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">sitemaps.org</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Main features:</strong></p>

<li>Unified structure for posts, pages, products, and taxonomies</li>
<li>Global chronological order (newer <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> older)</li>
<li>Automatic duplicate prevention across all sources</li>
<li>Two modes:
<ul>
<li><strong>File mode</strong> — creates a static sitemap in the site root (minimal server load)</li>
<li><strong>Dynamic mode</strong> — builds sitemap on-the-fly (always up to date, cached with TTL)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Clean and minimal settings page in WP Admin:
<ul>
<li>Enable or disable posts, pages, categories, tags, authors, archives</li>
<li>Supports WooCommerce products, DW Q&A, and all detected custom post types/taxonomies</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Homepage is always included automatically</li>
<li>Flexible <code><lastmod></code> for homepage:
<ul>
<li><strong>Smart</strong> — based on the most recently updated content</li>
<li><strong>Conservative</strong> — static front-page date</li>
<li><strong>Fast</strong> — current time on each generation</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Optional sitemap splitting (up to 50 000 URLs per part) with automatic sitemap index</li>
<li>Two independent generation engines — optimized for both regular and ultra-large sites</li>
<li>Detects potential conflicts with other sitemap providers and SEO plugins</li>
<li>Shows last generation time (UTC or site timezone)</li>
<li>Safe caching with TTL and diagnostic comments (HIT / MISS / timing)</li>

<ul>
<li>Sends correct Content-Type, Last-Modified, Cache-Control, and ETag headers</li>
<li>Optional X-Robots-Tag: noindex, follow header for sitemap requests</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Security and reliability</strong>:
<ul>
<li>Capability checks and nonce validation</li>
<li>Strict sanitization and option whitelisting</li>
<li>File operations via <code>WP_Filesystem</code> (with safe fallback)</li>
<li>No external requests — lightweight and self-contained</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>

Lightweight Sitemap Generator

Lightweight XML sitemap generator: file or dynamic mode; supports pages, posts, taxonomies, archives, WooCommerce, DW Q&A.

<p>Table of Contents Creator (TOCC) automatically generates a highly customizable dynamic site wide table of contents that is always up-to-date. All entries are navigable making your site very SEO friendly. TOCC can be configured to display static pages, blog entries and forum comments. Another great feature of TOCC is the ability  to include anchor tags marked with a special class. This feature allows links to articles, downloads or even other sites to appear within the table of contents as if they are part of your site’s navigation.</p>
