Sitemap is one of the important pages of every website and very helpful for the user when she is lost. With large number of pages and posts it can be hard to create a Sitemap page manually. Luckily Wordpress has many plugins for that and out of those WP Sitemap Page  is my favourite. To add sitemap on a page just install this plugin and add    [wp_sitemap_page]   shortcode to your page. It can display all pages , posts and categories but you can choose what to show. If you have any questions write it in comments.
