Configuration

Here you find information for integrators, e.g how to set up the sitemap.xml or the hreflang.

Main Topics

Meta tags

The meta tags were automatically inserted from the page settings. Fallback for the social meta tags are already defined - FAQ.

Browser title prefix/suffix

Generally the sitetitle is defined in the TypoScript Root Template. This is the prefix/suffix for the browser title. If you wan’t to have a specific phrase for each language, look here Sitetitle.

Extend news and other extension records

It is possible to extend other records like pages with seo properties. If this is done, the meta tag genaration will override the page meta tags, if the parameter for the detail view was found in the URL. More information here: Extend existing models.

Evaluation

All constants for the evaluation, like the minimum length of an description and so on are configurable in the extension manager (Extension Manager Configuration). Some max values were also used to define the max number of characters in the TCA. You can also define if the evaluation should be visible in the page module and at which position. You can say, which evaluators are available and you can write your own ones (Write your own evaluators).

Sitemap.xml

Automatically a sitemap.xml for the default language is generated. No extra fields in the page settings were defined. If No Index is set, the page is also not visible in the sitemap - FAQ.

Pages

If you need more languages or the website has an other root pid than 1 use the TypoScript settings: Sitemap.xml.

News

If you would like to show also a sitemap for the news, include the TypoScript called “Sitemap.xml for news”. Then configure at least the detail pid. More here: Sitemap for news records.

Other Extensions and external sitemaps

For other extension records or additional, external sitemaps take a look here: Extend the Sitemap.xml.

RealURL

If you use RealURL, cs_seo automatically configures that the path sitemap.xml maps to the page type 655. If you wan’t to disable this, use the setting in the extension manager: RealURL AutoConf.

Robots.txt

The default robots.txt is configured via TypoScript.

Domain Records

You can also define a different content for each domain. Therefore use the extra field in the sys domain records or a TypoScript Condition.

RealURL

If you use RealURL, cs_seo automatically configures that the path robots.txt maps to the page type 656. If you wan’t to disable this, use the setting in the extension manager: RealURL AutoConf.
