How can I exclude specific pages in Webflow from appearing in our sitemap and analytics, such as auto-generated certificates given to visitors who completed a basic training on our website?
To exclude specific pages from appearing in your sitemap and analytics in Webflow, you can follow these steps:
1. Exclude pages from the sitemap:
- Go to your Webflow project's dashboard and navigate to the "Pages" tab.
- Select the specific page you want to exclude from the sitemap.
- In the page settings panel on the right-hand side, scroll down to the "SEO" section.
- Toggle off the option labeled "Include in XML sitemap".
- Save your changes.
By turning off the "Include in XML sitemap" option for a specific page, that page will no longer be included in the generated sitemap. This means search engines won't index it, and it won't appear in the sitemap XML file that Webflow generates.
2. Exclude pages from analytics:
- Open your Webflow project and go to the "Project Settings."
- In the left-hand sidebar, click on the "Integrations" tab.
- Scroll down until you find the "Analytics" section.
- Underneath the analytics provider you have set up (e.g., Google Analytics), click on "Settings".
- In the settings panel that appears, look for an option like "Exclude specific pages" or "Exclude URLs", depending on your analytics provider.
- Enter the URLs or page paths of the pages you want to exclude from analytics tracking.
- Save your changes.
By excluding specific URLs or page paths from analytics tracking, you can ensure that data from those pages is not included in your analytics reports. This way, auto-generated pages like certificates given to visitors who completed basic training will not affect your analytics data.
Remember to republish your website after making these changes to ensure they take effect.
