Hello, does anyone know how to edit sitemap.xml? I’ve read a post that we can edit it through FTP ( https://www.websitebuilderinsider.com/how-do-i-update-my-sitemap-on-shopify/#:~:text=Updating%20your%20sitemap%20through%20the,reflected%20in%20your%20sitemap%20automatically) ).

I think, we can’t edit sitemap.xml file, it will be default provided by shopify. You can access it via your-domain.myshopify.com/sitemap.xml or your-base-url/sitemap.xml

Just learned the sitemap generated in my store includes spam urls that were added by malicious bot. So thinking I will create my own tidy clean sitemap. But how to create in xml format. Then can I replace mystore.com/sitemap.xml . File?

I utilized this same solution, and ended up using a reverse proxy (Cloudflare) to setup the redirect. Be aware that if you go the Cloudflare route, you’ll need to request origin-to-origin from their team, or otherwise this won’t work.

@dev-kriya If you’re using Shopify for your storefront, go to Online Store → Navigation → View URL redirects (link at top right). From there you can create a redirect. [Screen Shot 2024-04-10 at 11.48.09 AM.png]

Thanks for the suggestion. Will explore the solution.

Thanks, however the “files uploaded” in Shopify are hosted in shopify CDN domain - cdn.shopify.com & have a link of the form - https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0650/9730/2237/files/{{file_name }} Shopify does not allows to create URL redirect for this.
