22-Jul-2026 — generated sitemap.xml, robots.txt and official page addresses ref #297

build 789 — commit 4455bca

What's new

Search engines can now discover and index every public page on a site reliably. Each site serves a sitemap.xml generated automatically from the pages and events already in the site, and a robots.txt that points crawlers at it. Every page also declares its official address, so duplicate listings caused by tracking labels such as ?ref=ed_direct collapse into the proper address in Google's index.

At a glance

• sitemap.xml is generated automatically from the site's public pages, walks and social events, so it stays up to date on its own
• robots.txt points search engines at the sitemap and keeps them out of admin and login pages
• every page declares its official address, so addresses with tracking labels on the end no longer appear as separate pages in Google
• benefits every NGX site with nothing to configure - the site address already held in system settings is used throughout
