Firstly thanks for this great module. We are running large-weight newspaper company. Our sitemap.xml getting large and large and seo results complains from that. Is there any solution for those three options.
1- Divide it for more pages. For example:
<sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"><sitemap><loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml?page=1</loc><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap><sitemap><loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml?page=2</loc><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap><sitemap><strong><loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml?page=3</loc></strong><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap><sitemap><strong><loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml?page=4</loc></strong><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap>
..

..</sitemapindex>2- Or categorize sitemap based on catagories. For example:
<sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"><sitemap><loc>http://www.example.com/sport/sitemap.xml</loc><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap><sitemap><loc>http://www.example.com/life/sitemap.xml?page=2</loc><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap><sitemap><loc>http://www.example.com/computes/sitemap.xml?page=3</loc><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap>
..
..
..</sitemapindex>3- Or categorize by date. For example:
<sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"><sitemap><loc>http://www.example.com/<strong>2015_12</strong>/sitemap.xml</loc><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap><sitemap><loc>http://www.example.com/<strong>2016_1</strong>/sitemap.xml?page=2</loc><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap><sitemap><strong><loc>http://www.example.com/<strong>2016_2</strong>/sitemap.xml?page=3</loc></strong><lastmod>2016-01-30T07:33Z</lastmod></sitemap>
