Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted November 17, 20222 yr I noticed there is no sitemap for clubs. As they can be indexed, such a map would be useful for better and faster indexation.
November 17, 20222 yr Author I know that clubs are a rather niche module and not much used (at least I think so) but some forums use them and have a lot of content there 😉 BTW: Will clubs be removed in the future or do you have an idea for them (to improve)? Edited November 17, 20222 yr by SeNioR-
November 18, 20222 yr BTW: Will clubs be removed in the future or do you have an idea for them (to improve)? Yes, of course in another 10 or 15 years. Depends on the road map.
January 19, 20232 yr Author 4.7.7 Beta. Quote Added Clubs and Club Pages to sitemap. Yay. It's nice to have an impact on development 🙏🤩
January 19, 20232 yr There are actually more SEO changes:) 1. Clubs and Club Pages Sitemaps 2. Club page and CMS pages can now also be flagged as not indexable. 3. We've added the noindex tag to few other pages which shouldn't be indexed.
January 19, 20232 yr Author Afrodude, I think it was already on their TODO list, and it just coincided with my sugesstion 🙂
March 3, 20241 yr Sorry for my intervention in this topic, due this topic contains the club Sitemap words, I suppose it is related with my topic.... because I was searching how can I get a specific club forum, or 2 specific club forums sitemap file, what I want is provide that sitemap to an AI project, the chatbot need to scrape that sitemap content to be trained. But I never know how to work with sitemap, where or how can I get that file? Thanks for any comment... Edited March 3, 20241 yr by kmk
March 3, 20241 yr This would require a 3rd party application! The IPS "clubs" sitemap will contain a list of all clubs, but not the specific forums from clubs, these will be covered in the forums sitemap which contains the list of literally all guests accessible forums, which brings me to my next point: It's probably not smart to "only" sitemap. If you want to train your own AI chatbot, you'll probably want to contain also more domain specific content, so you'll probably want also to include content which is accessible by your members but not guests. You could probably use a RSS feed that contains all the forums that you want to use for the training.
