seo/sitemap-xml · sitemap.xml

Your project should provide a sitemap.xml file.

Severity: warning

What it checks

The project should have a sitemap.xml, either at static/sitemap.xml or served via a src/routes/sitemap.xml/+server endpoint.

Why it matters

A sitemap.xml lists your URLs so search engines can discover and prioritise them, especially pages not well linked internally.

How to fix

Add static/sitemap.xml or a src/routes/sitemap.xml/+server endpoint:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
  <url><loc>https://example.com/</loc></url>
</urlset>

Mode differences

None. The check looks for the file or its +server endpoint in the project and is the same everywhere it runs, including a --route run. The dashboard’s live layer does not re-evaluate site-wide rules; the static baseline’s result stands.

Disabling

If this is intentional, turn the rule off:

export default {
  rules: {
    'seo/sitemap-xml': 'off'
  }
};
