    • Content Sitemaps: Automatically handles Entries, Categories, and Commerce Products.
    • Content Query Sitemaps: Uses an Element Query via a Condition Builder for advanced requirements.
    • Custom Pages Sitemap: Allows for the addition of standalone one-off URL links.

    The Sprout SEO Sitemap tool generates XML sitemaps for URL-enabled content across one or more languages. It natively supports the following content types:

    1. Entries
    2. Categories
    3. Craft Commerce Products
    4. Custom Page URLs

    Additionally, plugins can extend this support to Custom Elements by implementing URL-Enabled Sections.

  12. Overview of Sprout Sent Email functionality

    Sprout Sent Email captures instances of emails sent by Craft CMS, including system emails, Sprout Email Notification Emails, and Sprout Email Campaign Emails. It is used to review sent messages, troubleshoot customer support or deliverability issues, and re-send emails to users. Note that a 'sent' status in Sprout Sent Email indicates the email was successfully handed off by Craft, but does not guarantee final deliverability; for delivery and bounce tracking, an external email service provider (e.g., Mailgun, Sparkpost) is recommended.
