Where are the generated sitemaps stored?

Can I exclude specific posts or pages?
-
Yes! You can exclude content by:
* Post/Page ID

How often are sitemaps updated?
-
Sitemaps are automatically regenerated when you publish, update, or delete content. You can also enable scheduled regeneration (hourly, daily, or weekly).

Does this conflict with other SEO plugins?
