How to use:

This content type is built in the Homepage, and automatically creates a sitemap, based on the existing site structure and content.

This content type adds the syntax and 2x navigation objects (1x related content to return XML for the home section, 1x publish to one file to return XML for the rest of the site). The navigation objects return the text/xml-sitemap layout from the SectionMetaDescription system content type (id: 138). This layout contains the logic to generate for a section, and can be customised to add rules to exclude pages/branches.

Additionally, content types can be excluded at a content type level, using the inclusion of a layout on the specified content type: text/xml-exclude. This layout simply contains the word "Yes". Then based on this existing, the Sitemap will use logic to exclude the content. 

Currently this applied to the Employee Profile, Housing, Policy and Volunteer.
