WordPress 5.5 includes built-in <a href="https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/07/22/new-xml-sitemaps-functionality-in-wordpress-5-5/" rel="nofollow ugc">sitemap functionality</a>.
This plugin provides a UI for some of the most common sitemap configuration settings.
NOTE: some plugins (like Yoast SEO) replace core sitemaps with their own version. This plugin only works with core sitemaps.
