Modify Url's in Sitecore SXA sitemap

Question

Our application is on Sitecore 9.0.2 with SXA 1.8.1

we have written custom link provider and Item resolver to omit bucket folders in Url's in our application and is working as expected , we also want the Url's to omit bucket folders on sitemap.xml

I understand that we can override the SitemapGenerator to do this but unable to find documentation on which method to override

any help on this ? what is the best way to achieve this functionality ?

Answer 1

You don't have to override any processor. The sitemap is generated using SitemapGenerator service. Take a look at GenerateSitemap() method - this is an entry point (take a look also at BuildSitemap() and GetFullLink() protected methods).

I would implement my own sitemap generator which will inherit from SXA SitemapGenerator service and override just what I need.

As the last step, you need to replace SXA service with your own. You can do it in two ways:

• config patch
• replace service in DI container using code
