XML Sitemaps in 1.0 wont work

**Romac** · 02-09-2009, 03:20 PM

Hi I installed the XMl sitemaps module that comes with PLigg 1.0. But it wont generate a sitemap. I configured it, cant find a button that will generate a sitemap if I click it. And after posting a story it still doesn't generate a sitemap. Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Same questions and challenge. I've configured it in the Configure section but there is no sitemap.xml file

same, it's supposed to autogenerate a sitemap file but I get nothing

yup where is the sitemap, i have it working on pligg 9.9 but not 1.0 would appreciate some quick advice on this

**pliggrich** · 03-22-2009, 05:55 PM

so does the sitemap module work with 1.0? Nobody seems to have an answer for this?

Do i need to submit a bug, would seem pointless since it has been reported here several times, not sure why a module that doesn't work with 1.0 would be added in the default modules

Last I heard it wasn't working and the module had some serious holes in it, so we removed it from the trunk this week. 1.0 is still in a RC phase, so not everyhing has been confirmed to be 100%.

Works perfectly for my site

I added the following to Google Webmaster Tools

/sitemapindex.xml

It generates an xml sitemap dynamically

btw what is it supposed to do?

using http://www.xxxx.xxsitemapindex.xml

I get :

<sitemapindex>
−
<sitemap>
<loc>http://xxxx.xx/sitemap-0.xml</loc>
<lastmod>2009-04-02T13:35:53-05:00</lastmod>
</sitemap>
−
<sitemap>
<loc>http://xxxx.xx/sitemap-pages.xml</loc>
</sitemap>
</sitemapindex>

It was not working for me too. I gave

Sitemap Friendly URL option to true and added the url rewrite thing to .htaccess file

========
RewriteRule ^sitemapindex.xml module.php?module=xml_sitemaps_show_sitemap [L]
RewriteRule ^sitemap-([0-9a-z]+).xml module.php?module=xml_sitemaps_show_sitemap&i=$1 [L]
========
Now the sitemap is getting updated automatically with each submission.

You check this url (
http://yourdomain.com/module.php?module=xml_sitemaps_show_sitemap ) is working, If so, the above will work
