Making Websites With October CMS - Part 38 - Creating Sitemap.xml

There are sitmap plugins for October CMS that you can use, and that is ok. The problem with that is that they mostly support only Pages, Static Pages and Blog plugin out of the box. For any other model on your site you would have extend that plugin to recognize your custom model.

So that is one way you could tackle the sitemap problem. The other way, that I will show you in this video is to create a `Route` that will return a view with XML sitemap. I think that by doing this you have much more control over how your sitemap will look.

I noticed an issue with your movies url (a '/' is missing in the XML file. You would rather write <loc>{{ url('/movies/movie') }}/{{ movie.slug }}</loc>. Thanks for this great video.

Hello Ivan, I'm watching and learning from your videos! Thank you very much for the deep explanation and effort, I'm glad I've found these lessons.

Which Editor are you using? Is it sublime text editor? Please tell me how to make it look like same as yours, it's very clean.
