Toggle to remove Sitemap Indexing on CMS Collection Pages

Please add the Sitemap Indexing toggle to CMS Collection pages.

Webflow introduced the toggle in page settings to remove individual pages from the sitemap, which is great. We really need to be able to remove entire CMS collections from the sitemap, however - for example, for ad landing pages, affiliate pages, and giveaway pages created from CMS collections.

    We have pages with sensitive information which we don't want accessible by the public, so this feature is critical for us. Never mind google, but if those pages are exposed on the sitemap my worry is that information will be picked up by scrapers who just ignore the noindex tag.

    Yeah, we also faced some troubles with sharing marketing materials and technical documentation that shouldn’t be both indexable and visible in the sitemap.

    Agreed we need this functionality. I made another wishlist item for the same thing here: https://wishlist.webflow.com/ideas/WEBFLOW-I-6613


    Maybe Webflow will merge them if they get enough traction, then eventually implement this. Seems strange to me that they wouldnt have done this all together when they gave this functionality to the static pages

    To prevent search engines from indexing the unwanted pages, add a noindex meta tag to the head section of those pages. In Webflow, navigate to the Page Settings of the specific page, go to the Custom Code tab, and add <meta name="robots" content="noindex"> in the ‘Inside <head> tag’ field.
