I turned on the Sitemap setting to 'true', made a couple changes (e.g. don't show short descriptions, etc.), and saved the settings...

now what?

There's no sitemap.xml file created or html file created. What's up with that?

The sitemap is created when the daily cron runs James. You may also create a link to it if you'd like. Your user visible map may be reached by visiting http://www.grenvillestation.com/ccp0-si … HXCseo.php

what time is the cron job set to run? is it possible to change the 'upload to the search engines' feature to happen weekly? I don't update daily so I don't want to keep sending them a sitemap that wasn't changed on a daily basis.

I can go in and copy my structure for other pages, so what would be the page 'id' (or whatever it's called) - here's an example of my current htaccess:

Code:

RewriteRule ^contact-us.php               index.php?app=ccp0&ns=contact         [L,PT]
RewriteRule ^view-shopping-cart.php       index.php?app=ccp0&ns=viewcart        [L,PT]
RewriteRule ^order-status.php             index.php?app=ccp0&ns=acctorders      [L,PT]

I guess i'm asking what the sitemap 'namespace' would be?

It's different on every installation and is based on when the install was done.

Moving 0900_XMLSiteMap.php from tasks_daily to tasks_weekly might work but doing so is untested. It shouldn't hurt anything to let it run daily.

The namespace for sitemap is sitemap (I know, too obvious). My post included a link to your map that works fwiw.

So, google is ok with daily sitemap uploads that have no changes...? you think they would get annoyed

I have a goole webmaster account, which is how i upload my sitemap...this doesn't ask for an account so it just uploads generically?

I missed the link...though you were just showing an example format.

Is there a way to edit the layout of the html sitemap? it's unattractive

Have you looked at your XHTML includes list lately James?

wyattea · 08-22-2008 09:12:11

I'm going to want to get the sitemap to look more like this: http://www.grenvillestation.com/reference/sitemap.php

I made that as a webpage through admin, and a bit of code to pull all products along with the 'seotext' i use in the title tag appended. My sitemap was already nice and dynamic but no automated upload to the SE's.

wyattea · 08-22-2008 09:14:28

uhm, yeah, but i was focused on editing the shipestimator include...sometimes i shoot first, ask questions later... well isn't that a handy include

Sigh ....

I installed the sitemap add on to my site guest-bed.com. I followed the instrucitons to enable it but I get a 404 eror page not found. Do I need to wait for the crone job to do its work first. I installed it today.

The user side will be available immediately but the generated sitemap.xml will not be created until the daily cron job in CCP runs for the first time which may be any time within 24 hours after you installed. A quick check reveals that it is installed and operating correctly (http://guest-bed.com/khxc/index.php?app … ns=sitemap).
