## Descripción

Custom Sitemap Generator is a powerful, lightweight WordPress plugin that creates
XML sitemaps to help search engines discover and index your content efficiently.
Unlike bloated SEO plugins, this focused tool does one thing exceptionally well –

per sitemap) * Debounced regeneration to prevent duplicate processing * Memory-efficient
queries for sites with thousands of posts * Scheduled regeneration via WP Cron

**Developer Friendly:**

## Preguntas frecuentes

### Where are the generated sitemaps stored?

Sitemaps are stored in the root directory of your WordPress installation for optimal
accessibility and SEO performance.

### Can I exclude specific posts or pages?

Yes! You can exclude content by:
 * Post/Page ID * Full URL * URL slug or pattern

### How often are sitemaps updated?

Sitemaps are automatically regenerated when you publish, update, or delete content.
You can also enable scheduled regeneration (hourly, daily, or weekly).

### Does this work with custom post types?

Yes! The plugin automatically detects all public custom post types and taxonomies,
allowing you to include them in your sitemaps.

### What’s the maximum number of URLs per sitemap?

By default, sitemaps are limited to 50,000 URLs (Google’s limit). For sites with
more content, multiple sitemaps are created automatically with a sitemap index.

### Can I notify search engines when my sitemap updates?

Yes! Enable the «Search Engine Ping» feature to notify Google and Bing when your
sitemap is updated.

### Is this plugin compatible with caching plugins?

Yes, the plugin generates static XML files that work perfectly with all caching 
solutions.

### Does this conflict with other SEO plugins?

This plugin focuses solely on sitemap generation. If you’re using another SEO plugin
with sitemap features, you may want to disable one to avoid duplicate sitemaps.
