AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Hierarchical HTML Sitemap is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the SEO category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 11 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

How Hierarchical HTML Sitemap works
Show full descriptionShow less
Hierarchical HTML Sitemap offers visitors an easy and intuitive way to navigate your blog.
This plugin generates an HTML sitemap of your WordPress blog. It displays a list of posts grouped by hierarchically sorted categories. By using a shortcode, you can display it on a page or anywhere else that supports shortcodes, such as a widget.
The output does not include CSS or JavaScript files. It is pure HTML, ready to inherit or receive your theme’s styles.
Features
Short and easy shortcode: [htmlmap].
Categories sorted hierarchically.
Displays posts and/or pages.
Can exclude specified posts, pages, or categories.
Displays category navigation above the posts list.
Displays post publication dates.
Clean HTML without scripts.
Does not enqueue unnecessary JavaScript or CSS files.
No ads or author links in the output.
Usage and options The [htmlmap] shortcode accepts these optional attributes:
exclude: post or page IDs to omit, for example [htmlmap exclude="445,446"].
exclude_cat: category IDs to omit, for example [htmlmap exclude_cat="1,34"].
showpages: display the list of pages, for example [htmlmap showpages].
hidecloud: hide category navigation, for example [htmlmap hidecloud].
showdescription: display category descriptions, for example [htmlmap showdescription].
hidedate: hide post publication dates, for example [htmlmap hidedate].
hidecount: hide post counts in category headings, for example [htmlmap hidecount].
You can combine attributes, for example:
[htmlmap exclude="3546,7398" exclude_cat="1,34" showpages hidecloud]
HTML structure and CSS classes The shortcode preserves existing category heading IDs (cat_<term-id>), the
category navigation class (cat), and the empty-category class (null).
Additional classes are available for theme customisation:
htmlmap-post-list: each category’s post list.
htmlmap-post: each post list item.
htmlmap-children: the list item containing child categories.
htmlmap-empty-category: added alongside the legacy null class.
htmlmap-category-description: a displayed category description.
htmlmap-page-list: the optional pages list.
htmlmap-page: each page list item.
Child categories are rendered after their parent category’s posts inside a
dedicated list item, rather than inside the final post item.
