Add a Sitemap to Your Contentful Project

Arboretum features a user-friendly visual sitemap editor that simplifies how you manage and navigate your website structure.

By offering a clear, visualized representation of the site's hierarchical architecture, it allows users to easily explore even complex projects and understand how pages are organised.

Arboretum is seamlessly integrated with Contentful. When you define a language or locale in Contentful, Arboretum automatically generates a corresponding subtree for your website.

The Arboretum Sitemap App lets you view this localized subtree, displaying the localized version of each page for easy navigation and management.

The Arboretum Sitemap App is highly customizable, allowing you to tailor its configuration to fit your content model.

You can add multiple content types that represent pages in your model and specify which fields within those types should be mapped to the slug and title. Arboretum also supports redirects, which can be configured similarly for seamless content management.

Encoding the relationship between parent and child pages is essential for building a structured page tree for your website. Arboretum supports two primary methods for defining these relationships: either by using a ‘children’ field on parent pages (parent-to-children) or a ‘parent’ field on child pages (child-to-parent).

Independent from the decision on how to store those relationships, Arboretum Sitemap App will be able to build and let your interact with a hierarchical structure your website.

When you need to select a page while working on content, Arboretum can be used as a widget, enabling visual selection directly from the page tree instead of a page list.

Additionally, Arboretum can be added as a sidebar widget for your page content types. This sidebar widget provides direct links to both preview and published page versions, switch the locale of a preview, and lets users quickly check if a page is already included in the sitemap.
