I have gone to the sitemap but the view is empty, do I need to do anything other than enable it and set it to all articles and switch on Hikashop? I added buy-peptide/peptides/{productId}
Thanks

Hi Paul,
Thanks for reaching out.
Please make sure that in the sitemap edit form, the HikaShop Products filter is set to “All” — this ensures that all products are included.
Also, keep in mind that Route 66 generates a sitemap index file. This index links to the actual sitemaps (e.g., articles, products, categories), so it’s normal if the main sitemap file only shows a few lines.
If you’re unsure whether everything is set up correctly, feel free to share the sitemap index URL so we can take a look. You can do this by opening a new private ticket or, if you prefer, by sending it to us via email, especially if you’d rather not post it publicly.
Let me know how you’d like to proceed.
Best regards,
Lefteris
Hi, thanks for the reply. I have been looking in to it and it does now seem to index more pages via the sitemap but my Hikashop products are not showing at all in the sitemap.
I have set the Hikashop Products to 'ALL', and in the Search console it shows 43 pages indexed from the sitemap, but this excludes 27 pages of products.
Here is an example of a product page: https://newwavepeptides.co.uk/buy-peptide/peptides/bpc-157-5mg-10mg
It seems no products will show in the Google Search Console, even if I request indexing.
Is there anything else I can do to include these in my Sitemap? I also checked in Search Console and 'Not Indexed' and 'Removals' but they are not in there either.
My sitemap is: https://newwavepeptides.co.uk/component/route66/sitemapindex/1?format=xml
Thanks.
Hi Paul,
Thanks for sharing your sitemap — I’ve had a look, and it appears there’s indeed an issue with the HikaShop integration under the latest Joomla versions.
I’ve just sent you a development version of Route 66 via email. This build is identical to the latest public release, with the only difference being a fix specifically for the HikaShop sitemap issue.
Please go ahead and install it, and let me know if everything works as expected.
Best regards,
Lefteris
