Notes and sources for updating the documentation: - Mailing list response about this topic, July 2024: https://lists.katipo.co.nz/pipermail/koha/2024-July/060783.html - Mailing list response referenced, November 2020: https://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2020-November/055401.html - To update the site map files to pick up catalog changes, you need to set up a cronjob - The current file names generated don't seem to work with Google Search Console (previously Google Webmaster Tools) - see bug 36977 (not yet in a release when this bug was added). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
