> **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).

Page type permissions control the access to all pages of a particular page type. These permissions are assigned to roles in the **Permissions** application.

To modify the permissions for a particular page type:

1. Choose _Page type_ from the first **Permissions for** drop-down list.
2. Choose the required page type from the second drop-down list.

You can grant the following page type permissions to particular roles:

| Read               | Allows members of the role to view any page of this type.                                                                                                                                                                |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Modify             | Allows members of the role to edit any page of this type.                                                                                                                                                                |
| Create             | Allows members of the role to create pages of this type. With this permission, users must also have the **Create** page-level permission on the parent page under which they want the new page to be created.            |
| Create anywhere    | Allows members of the role to create pages of this type anywhere in the content tree, without the need to have the **Create** page-level permission on the parent page under which they want the new page to be created. |
| Delete             | Allows members of the role to delete any page of this type.                                                                                                                                                              |
| Destroy            | Allows members of the role to destroy (delete without the _Undo_ option) any page of this type.                                                                                                                          |
| Browse tree        | Allows members of the role to see pages found under pages of this type in the content tree.                                                                                                                              |
| Modify permissions | Allows members of the role to manage page-level permissions of all page of this type in **Pages -> Properties -> Security**.                                                                                             |
