Ability to set news sitemap URL

    Hey there –

    Trying to figure out the best way to set a custom news sitemap URL.

    This used to be possible via the “xmlsf_sitemaps” option…

    Array
(
    [sitemap-news] => my-custom-url.xml
)

    Now, however, that value isn’t used and instead, the rewrite rule is hardcoded…

    if( isset($sitemaps['sitemap-news']) ) {
  add_rewrite_rule('sitemap-news\.xml$', $wp_rewrite->index . '?feed=sitemap-news', 'top');
}

    Curious what the recommended approach would be to customize this without hacking that line in the plugin?

    Thanks,
    TL

    Hmmm, you did that in the database before? You might do this instead (in a custom/child theme) now:

    
add_rewrite_rule('my-custom-url\.xml$', $wp_rewrite->index . '?feed=sitemap-news', 'top');

    … or set up permanent redirect in your .htaccess file maybe?

    Dropped a rewrite rule in the functions file and flushed the permalinks.
