fix: make /sitemap.xml list all pages directly, not an index-of-one#25
Merged
Conversation
@astrojs/sitemap unconditionally emits a sitemapindex wrapper (sitemap-index.xml -> sitemap-0.xml) regardless of site size -- there is no config option to skip it. That's valid per the sitemap protocol and every real crawler follows the reference automatically, but it meant /sitemap.xml (which I'd pointed at a static copy of the index in the previous fix) only showed one <loc> entry, not the 89 real page URLs, which is what a human clicking the link reasonably expects for a site this size. Replaced the static placeholder with a postbuild step that copies the real, already-serialize()-transformed sitemap-0.xml over sitemap.xml after every build, so it's always the complete, correct, and never- stale list of all pages -- generated fresh each build from the actual page set, not hand-maintained. Updated robots.txt to point at the simpler /sitemap.xml directly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
