Sitemap Gotchas
See original GitHub issueI noticed some gotchas worth pointing out regarding the custom sitemap:
- Unexpectedly outputs items with
sitemap: falsein them, such as thesearchpage. - Outputs
404.html, which most individuals will not want indexed. - Does not adapt to collections automatically, and manual updates can easily be forgotten.
The custom sitemap.xml file indicates jekyll-sitemap does not allow custom priority or changefreq, which seems moot given the two items were removed as documented in the jekyll-sitemap CHANGELOG.
As a result, we should consider removing the custom sitemap and working towards standard gem usage. Meanwhile, those wanting a workaround can remove the custom sitemap.xml and sitemap_custom.xml files, install the jekyll-sitemap gem and refactor affected content files.

Just what I was looking for. Thanks, boss. I don’t have your eye for design but I can get us to the 10 yard line. PRs to follow.
@Phlow & @ghost I installed the jekyll-sitemap gem and ran into issues with the sample page for media player. See https://travis-ci.com/inetbiz/semantic-seo-jekyll/builds/108620183 Not sure where or what has to change?
