Where is issectionincludedinsitemap set?

[advwebsys]

i'd like to make this 'false', but it's not in the condition library, nor can i find it anyplace else (i'm pretty new to the v8 multi-level nesting architecture).

as a workaround, i edited the sitemap page layout and commented out the toplevelsectionlist reference, but that' clearly not the right way to do it.

well, i got a reply from 'leehack' via email, but i don't see it here. he (she) was kind enough to explain that this variable is set PER SECTION. i misunderstood and thought it was a global variable, but then again, if it was, then it would probably be named issectionlistincludedinsitemap.

chalk it up to a senior moment.

<actinic:variable name="IsSectionIncludedInSiteMap" /> == false

should do it. But why do you want to do it? Seems strange. Surely this is just set in the actual section itself using the Include in Site Map checkbox? In fact, that variable will display nothing, as it will only look for sections not to be included in the sitemap and therefore, the sitemap will be empty.

as i said, i'm a newbie. where would this statment go?

the reason for doing this is that this is a large catalog (over 2000 items) and between the sitemap and breadcrumbs, as well as the new product, best seller and also bought lists, the pages are becoming unwieldy. we want them to look good as well as being usable and our reseach by actually talking to customers has led us to conclude that the section list is not used very often.

No, what Lee is says is correct. You would not change that variable. Just go through your sections and uncheck 'Include in Site Map', that will stop it showing in your sitemap. Adding false into the variable would just display an empty sitemap, if anything you would add true, but it's a waste of time, the variable takes it value from the checkbox.

Unless it's not the sitemap you are looking to control?

Are you trying to control what shows in the nav and breadcrumbs based on if it is shown in the sitemap?
