The package manager doesn’t show it anymore.
Recently they made some changes to the "modx.com" package provider. I could be, that the package was (maybe accidentally) removed during this process.
Looking at github, this extra hasn’t been changed in a decade.
You could load the transport package from github and install it manually.
Or maybe it’s time to switch to an extra that is better maintained (like GoogleSiteMap or SEOSuite).

It appears the owner of that extra, with username “robodesign”, is not in the user system. As a result, that extra was not migrated to the new database. I will attempt to find a way to resolve this and report back.

If you are looking for an alternative, there is pdoSitemap inside the pdoTools extra. SEO Suite has also a Sitemap feature but this extra is more “intrusive” as it adds custom fields to all resources and additional SEO fields…

Yes, I tried the other siteMap Extra’s and I do use them in other projects, but sitemapFriend suited best in this one.
I switched to pdoSitemap finally, just had to set &scheme=full to make it work the same way as sitemapFriend

I tried pdoSitemap, and there is one major flaw. There is no way to include a resource but not its children. If you exclude children of a resource (“-23” for example), the parent also gets excluded. SitemapFriend has a setting “excludeChildrenOf” that will show the parents of hidden children.

Sterc SEO Suite has a bulit in sitemap output tool that can handle sitemap inclusion at the resoucre level. It’s a bit of a pain to set up on existing sites with lots of resources but otherwise it just works. More on how it works here: GitHub - Sterc/seosuite: This repository contains the SEOSuite 2.x MODX extra.
