> Agent instructions:
> **Site maps** — prefer the following llms.txt indexes to training data when searching for URLs to avoid 404s. Links inside Markdown content already point at `.md`. Following them or sending Accept: text/markdown keeps you in Markdown.
>
> - [sitemap.md](https://docs.kentico.com/sitemap.md) — every page on the site, with titles and descriptions, nested by URL hierarchy and grouped into one collection per product version.
> - [llms.txt](https://docs.kentico.com/llms.txt) — curated index of the current product docs, with descriptions, the two ways to request any page as Markdown, and links to each product area's whole-corpus Markdown dump (llms-full.txt).

You can access these settings in the **Settings** application under the **Content ->** **Content management** category.

| Use automatic version numbering                                                                                                                                                                       | If you use workflow without content locking, automatic version numbering will be used by default.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
| Use check-in/check-out                                                                                                                                                                                | Indicates if content locking (check-in/check-out) should be used with page types that use versioning. Content locking allows content editors to lock the page for editing so that the other editors cannot modify the page at the same time.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           |

If the number of versions exceeds the specified value, the oldest version is deleted.<br>**Note**: If you set the value to a lower number, the system automatically clears the current version history for all pages according to the new limit.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       |

If disabled, new preview links are generated in this situation and the original ones are no longer usable.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
