Regarding whether this is an issue or not really depends on your meanind of the question.If you are worried that visitors to your site who look at your sitemap won't be able to find hidden links, via the sitemap (they will still be able to find them in your footer), then I guess it is an issue.If you are worried that removing links from your sitemap will also hide them from search engines, such as Google, you don't need to worry. The fact that they are added to your footer means search engines will still find them. You will still get Google love by having the links in your footer.If, however, you have a different concern, let me know and I'll do my best to address it.Rochelle Gus and Shelley,

It keeps things very tidy. With that being said I would also like to know about the privacy policy not appearing on the sitemap. Is this an issue or not?I know you haven't been well, so when you get a chance, I'd love to see what you think about this.CheersShelley Hi Rochelle,

Good job! I've implemented a fair amount of your tips to my sites. However, I noticed that when I move my privacy policy page to the footer and hide it from the content menu, it disappears from my sitemap xml. I'd like to make sure it stays in the sitemap so the page is indexed. Or is this a limitation w/ the BANS programming?Gus Hi Rochelle,
