This simple plugin adds an HTML (Not XML) sitemap of your pages (not posts) by entering the shortcode [html_sitemap] in the page content. This simple plugin is configured with the <code>[html_sitemap]</code> shortcode. This plugin can display a sitemap with specific depths, from a specific parent page and include/exclude specific children. Shortcode attributes include <code>sort_column</code>, <code>sort_order</code>, <code>exclude</code>, <code>include</code>, <code>depth</code>, <code>child_of</code>, <code>meta_key</code>, <code>meta_value</code>, <code>authors</code>, <code>number</code>, <code>offset</code>, <code>post_type</code>, and <code>post_status</code>, everything the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_pages" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>wp_list_pages</code></a> function accepts. In addition to the <code>wp_list_pages</code> options you can also set <code>class</code>, <code>id</code>, and <code>ordered_list_type</code> options.
This plugin is perfect for those who use WordPress as a CMS.
Please see documentation for the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_pages" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>wp_list_pages</code></a> for a complete list of options.
The following options may be configured in addition to options documented in <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_list_pages" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>wp_list_pages</code></a>:
The <code>class</code> and <code>id</code> attributes may specified set class or id values for the initial HTML Page Sitemap <code><ul></code> list tag.
The <code>child_of</code> attribute value can be a numeric page ID (integer), or use the custom value CURRENT or PARENT. The value “CURRENT” will use the current page’s ID. The value “PARENT” will uses the curent page’s parent ID.
The <code>ordered_list_type</code> attribute is an HTML Page Sitemap plugin exclusive option for specfiying an ordered list type. Not setting a ordered_list_type will use an unordered list (default).
<ul>
<li><code>ordered_list_type="1"</code> – The list items will be numbered with numbers</li>
<li><code>ordered_list_type="A"</code> – The list items will be numbered with uppercase letters</li>
<li><code>ordered_list_type="a"</code> – The list items will be numbered with lowercase letters</li>
<li><code>ordered_list_type="I"</code> – The list items will be numbered with uppercase roman numbers</li>
<li><code>ordered_list_type="i"</code> – The list items will be numbered with lowercase roman numbers</li>
</ul>

<h4>ATTENTION: HTML-SITEMAP SHORTCODE HAS CHANGED</h4>
Though <code>html-sitemap</code> still works, the new HTML Sitemap shortcode is <code>html_sitemap</code>. The dash/hyphen may not get processed correctly if other plugins use the same prefix such as the Syntax Highlighter plugin. <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/11948" rel="nofollow ugc">read more</a>, <a href="https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/17657" rel="nofollow ugc">and more</a>

HTML Page Sitemap

I felt the need to post a quick review for this plugin since it got a couple low ratings due to only including pages. The plugin clearly states it is for listing all of your pages only. It is not a normal XML sitemap. I'm giving it 5 stars because it is simple and does what I wanted. I simply wanted a page that listed all of my site's pages. This did it quickly and minimally. 

I do have one suggestion for the author. Rename the plugin. Instead of HTML Page Sitemap, perhaps it should be Simple Page List. Or, something that does not include "sitemap" since that word is what caused the couple low reviews, I think.

Adds an HTML (Not XML) sitemap of your pages (not posts) by entering the shortcode [html_sitemap], perfect for those who use WordPress as a CMS.
