WooCommerce Integration

Configure product sitemaps for your WooCommerce store.

Overview

Developer Sitemap automatically detects WooCommerce and provides product sitemap functionality. When WooCommerce is active, a dedicated product sitemap is available at:

This sitemap includes all published products that are visible in your catalog, helping search engines discover and index your entire product range.
