-   [Settings](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-seo:site-sets-settings-of-ext-seo@main)
-   [Settings editor](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-seo:settings-editor-1@main)

## Site sets {#configuration-site-sets}

Include the site set "SEO Sitemap", `typo3/seo-sitemap` via the [site set in the site
configuration](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ApiOverview/SiteHandling/SiteSets/Index.html#site-sets) or the custom
[site package's site set](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/tutorial-sitepackage/main/en-us/SiteSets/Index.html#site_set).

Settings for the included set can be adjusted in the [Settings editor](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-seo:settings-editor@main).

This will change your site configuration file as follows:

**config/sites/my-site/config.yaml (diff)**

```diff
  base: 'https://example.com/'
  rootPageId: 1
  dependencies:
    - typo3/fluid-styled-content-css
+   - typo3/seo-sitemap

```

If your site has a custom [site package](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/tutorial-sitepackage/main/en-us/Index.html#start), you
can also add the "SEO Sitemap" set as dependency in your site's configuration:

**EXT:my_site_package/Configuration/Sets/MySite/config.yaml (diff)**

```diff
name: my-vendor/my-site-package
 label: My Site Package Set
 settings:
   website:
     background:
       color: '#386492'
 dependencies:
   - typo3/fluid-styled-content-css
+  - typo3/seo-sitemap

```
