Sitemap.Disable doesn't work like expected

support
1

I wanted to use Sitemap.Disable to exclude a page from the sitemap. I used it like this:

---
title: 400 Bad request
Sitemap:
  Disable: true
---

This didn’t have any affect. I am not sure if I am using it wrong or this is a bug.

I fixed it by adapting the sitemap.xml:4:

{{ range where .Pages "Sitemap.Disable" "ne" true }}

to

{{ range where .Pages ".Params.sitemapExclude" "ne" true }}

Basically introducing a new front matter variable to achieve the same.

Did I find a bug and should I create an issue/pull request or am I using it wrongly?

sitemap:
  changefreq: weekly
  disable: true
  priority: 0.8

from the docs… case sensitivity is important here. use small characters in the markdown. Use title cased in your layout files.

I just tried using lowercase, it doesn’t work either. Are you sure btw that case sensitivity matter. I was under the impression that it doesn’t matter here

Which version of Hugo are you running? The disable field was added in v0.125.0.

The keys are case-insensitive, but you should get into the habit of using them as shown in the documentation.

We have a thorough integration test for this functionality, so I doubt you’ve found a bug:

Ah yes, you are absolutely right. I am using the ubuntu latest version, and this one is a little bit outdated. Sorry for the confusion…
