# Tenant site template

## Notes
Inferred on 2026-10-25 from the sitemaps, robots.txt and page links of three live Tenant sites:
storagepro.com (149 facilities), storelocal.com (105) and lockaway-storage.com (21). Replace with
the platform's own site map when available.

Every Tenant site is generated from the same template. Facility, city and state pages are
generated from the customer's facility data. Standard pages exist on every site at the same path.
Content pages (storage types, company pages, blog posts, tips) exist only when that content is
created or moved over; their slugs differ per customer (storagepro uses
/storage-types/climate-controlled-temperature-controlled-storage-units/, storelocal uses
/storage-types/climate-controlled-storage/).

All paths are lowercase and end with a trailing slash. Some customers add their own top-level
content sections (storagepro has /management-services/{slug}/); treat those as customer-specific,
not part of the template. Unit IDs, reservation IDs and query strings from old sites never carry
over: there are no unit-level or reservation pages to link to.

## Parameters
- {state}: Full US state name, lowercase, spaces as hyphens: texas, new-york, district-of-columbia. Never the two-letter code.
- {city}: City slug: lowercase, spaces as hyphens, punctuation removed: san-antonio, new-braunfels, oconnor.
- {facilitySlug}: Facility name slug, usually brand plus location: lockaway-storage-celina, storelocal-surprise, fort-knox-self-storage. Some facilities also have alias slugs that show the same page.
- {tenantFacilityId}: The facility's numeric Tenant property ID (e.g. 391001). Known only once the facility exists on Tenant; read it from the new site's sitemap.
- {slug}: Content slug, normally the page title slugified. Keep the old site's slug when it is already clean and descriptive.

Map here when: The old page is the homepage (including /home, /index.html, /index.php) or a
