Managing sitemap visibility for sections in AEM Guides with EDS
This article describes how to manage the visibility of specific sections in the sitemap when using Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) Guides integrated with Enterprise Delivery Service (EDS).
Description description
Environment
Adobe Experience Manager Guides (all versions)
Symptoms
When AEM Guides is integrated with EDS, the default configuration generates a sitemap that includes all published guides. There may be requirements to show or hide certain sections within the sitemap to control content visibility and navigation. The ability to manage sitemap sections depends on the customization options available in your AEM Guides and EDS setup.
Resolution resolution
Follow the steps below to resolve the issue:
-
Review the official documentation for configuring EDS with AEM Guides to understand the default sitemap generation process.
-
Identify the sections or pages within your AEM Guides content that you want to include or exclude from the sitemap.
-
Check if your current sitemap generation process allows for configuration or customization, such as:
-
Excluding specific paths or sections using configuration files or metadata, if supported.
-
Applying filters or rules within the sitemap generation logic, if this feature is available.
-
-
If the out-of-the-box functionality doesn’t support granular control over sitemap sections:
-
Consider customizing the sitemap generation logic through development. Consult with your AEM development team to explore supported extension points for this customization.
-
Use metadata or tagging within your guides to flag sections for inclusion or exclusion, if such features are supported by your deployment.
-
-
After making configuration or customization changes, publish your guides and verify the sitemap output to ensure only the desired sections are shown or hidden.
