[Official mod] Sitemap
SJG:
Yeah maybe your right... I mean all the other forum software is enhancing their SEO features, why should SMF do that! It would be too modern of them... lol
Kindred:
meh.... you mean "All the other forum software is adding crap to what people THINK is SEO"
What do you think is SEO anyway? Certainly not URLs (nope)...
SJG:
:D I just had to mouth a bit... I know SEO isn't just about URLs or Site Maps. I just think it would be a good "optional" feature.

If a site is just an SMF forum and nothing else, it'll be totally superflous.
I suspect that the majority of SMF forum sites are just the forum.
So, forcing the majority to have it is, from where I see it, wrong.
SMF should attempt to be as lean'n'mean as it can be.

I agree - those who want it can write their own (php is dead easy, never used php before, and had a working sitemap up in hours) or use a premade mod.
SMF should concentrate on its core functionality, the forum :)
N. N.:
Can you folks - those who would like to see this feature in SMF - please point out to me what does your sitemap contain, or what do you think it will usually contain?

Also maybe add a variable to the board create/modify page so that you can give that board a priority for the sitemap.

This is the board index page though.
I admit I don't see why a sitemap should belong in SMF - meaning in a forum package, although I can understand why it is good to have a fully grown site (with a forum and other pages or even software). It is indeed good to have when you have a number of additional pages. Am I missing something?
