WordPress sitemap

Miraz.

I was thinking it would be good to have a reference page on my Learning Centre listing all articles by category. I started by creating a new archives.php template. Then I rummaged round in the WordPress Codex for a while trying out various template tags and all. Ultimately though, I couldn’t see how to achieve what I wanted so I started Googling.

Fairly quickly I found the most excellent Sitemap Generator Plugin:

This plugin allows you to create a sitemap for your WordPress powered site. This is not just another XML sitemap plugin, but rather a true sitemap generator which is highly customizable from its own options page in the WordPress admin panel. Some of its features include: support for multi-level categories and pages, category/page exclusion, multiple-page generation with navigation, permalink support, choose what to display, what order to list items in, show comment counts and/or post dates, and many other options.

A quick and easy install, some setting of the options and a smidgeon of tinkering with my stylesheet has produced: Learning Centre Articles by Category.
