If you want to generate a sitemap.xml file for a given folder, you can use the below PHP script. This script will crawl through a given folder and generate a sitemap.xml file that you can use to submit to search engines.
function GenerateXML() { $path = 'https://www.yoursite.org/sitemaps/'; $xml = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9 http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd">'; $date = date("Y-m-d"); if ($handle = opendir('.')) { while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle))) { $extension = pathinfo($file, PATHINFO_EXTENSION); if($extension == 'html') { $xml .= '<url> <loc>'.$path.$file.'</loc> <lastmod>'.$date.'</lastmod> <changefreq>yearly</changefreq> <priority>0.5</priority> </url>'; } } closedir($handle); } $xml .= ' </urlset> '; $filename = "sitemap.xml"; $fp = fopen($filename, 'w'); fwrite($fp, $xml); fclose($fp); }
In this script, it traverses the current folder and searches for HTML files, and generates the sitemap.xml file.
