MOD: Include subpages in SimpleSEO

grimblefritz · Post by **grimblefritz** » Fri Apr 28, 2023 5:21 pm

The way I'm using WCMS, I have a hidden top-level menu item that does nothing but hold subpages I don't want in the menu. I would, however, like to have the subpages (that are not themselves hidden) in the sitemap.

SimpleSEO doesn't descend into the subpages. It only looks at the top level. So, this mod is good for that, too.

The following mod drills into the subpages, and it is recursive. You can have as many levels of subpages as you need.

This is for the version 3.2.1 of simple-seo.php

Find the following comment and foreach:

Code: Select all

    // CMS pages
    foreach ($Wcms->get('config', 'menuItems') as $item) {

and replace the entire foreach with this:

Code: Select all

    foreach ($Wcms->get('config', 'menuItems') as $item) {
        simpleSeoPage($item, $output, $BASE_URL);
    }

At the top of the script, after the global $Wcms, add this function:

Code: Select all

function simpleSeoPage($item, &$output, $BASE_URL) {
    if ($item->visibility !== 'hide') {
        $output[] = $BASE_URL . $item->slug;
    }
    foreach ($item->subpages as $subpage) {
        simpleSeoPage($subpage, $output, $BASE_URL . $item->slug . '/');
    }
}

The sitemap.txt will now include any subpages that are not hidden.

Ideally, if someone would like to tackle it (I'm not interested), on the admin page there should be a checkbox for "Include subpages?"

SEO OF SUBPAGES

SEO is not a specific tool or technology; it might be a term used in various contexts. If you're referring to a specific platform or library, please provide more details so I can offer more accurate assistance.

Assuming you are working with a website and want to include subpages for search engine optimization (SEO), one common approach is to ensure that your site has a clear and organized structure. Additionally, you can create a sitemap and submit it to search engines to help them discover and index your subpages.

Here's a general example of how you might structure a simple HTML page with subpages:

html
Copy code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<meta name="description" content="Your website description goes here">



<title>Your Website Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<header>

</header>

<nav>
<ul>
<li><a href="/">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="/about">About</a></li>
<li><a href="/services">Services</a></li>
<li><a href="/contact">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
</nav>

<main>



<section id="about">
<h1>About Us</h1>

</section>


<section id="services">
<h1>Our Services</h1>

</section>


<section id="contact">
<h1>Contact Us</h1>

</section>
</main>

<footer>

</footer>
</body>
</html>
In this example, each page is represented by a separate section (<section>), and the navigation menu (<nav>) includes links to these pages. Make sure to replace the placeholder content with your actual content and adapt the structure based on your specific needs.

If you have a different context or platform in mind, please provide more details so I can give more relevant guidance.
