Ugh, I swear I've followed the instructions and still can't get this to work. I'm submitting http://www.veggieboards.com/sitemap_index.xml.gz and getting a 404. I also tried http://www.veggieboards.com/boards/sitemap_index.xml.gz. I uploaded the .htaccess file that came with the zip to the forum root.

I even tried to modify the sitemap_config.php and still no luck there either.

I to got this error :( I have had a good search but couln't find the problem.

EDIT:
OK got some of my problems sorted!

cjshirlaw did you make the same mistake as me? At the bottom of the vbsoe settings page there is a box to input the file names of the add ons. The first time i tried this i put the file name followed by .php. For example vbseo_sm_downloads.php .this gave me a database error I then decieded to take the .php out and it ran ok
(Question? When you run the program it shows a load of text and at the end tells you the files have been created but there is no "proceed" or "next" button I have to manually go back to the main page by typing in the addy bar. Is this right or is there something wrong?)

Question? When the process is done i can go back to the vbsoe page and see that the file is created I also get the email to say the file is created but when i use my FTP app ( I use fireftp for firefox) to look inside the folder i can not see the file! Should this be the case?

Question? The file is not automatically sent to google ( i haven't checked yahoo yet as i dont know how) I had to manually add the file via my webmasters account.! ( In my email it says "Google ping: Successful.
Yahoo ping: Successful."
So why is it not sending the file? :(

Sorry for the long winded post but i do believe that the more information provided the easier it is for the helpers to help and it also helps people when they are searching for similar problems

All I had to do was type in my root domain and now the <loc> is listed as http://bike-talk.com/sitemap_index.xml.gz instead of http://bike-talk.com/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz

Thanks guys, great job!

If you run VBAdvanced and have it in your root folder (forum in subfolder) is it better to keep the sitemap it generates in the subfolder or to place it in the root folder. My thinking is its better in the forum folder because the urls all relate to the forums. However all the content on the root is via vbadvanced and thus comes from the forum so does it help site seo overall by having it there.

Advice?

11-02-2007 01:21 AM

I'm having the same problem with Google. My sitemap isn't accessible in http://www.cnbaforo.com.ar/sitemap_index.xml.gz, but it is in http://www.cnbaforo.com.ar/vbseo_sit...p_index.xml.gz. But it can't submit the last url to google, only the first one, and it does not work.

Can it be a mod_rewrite problem?

I have VBSEO's .htaccess file. Do I have to add the two lines of the Sitemap Generator's .htaccess file to it?

Skylighter

11-08-2007 02:43 AM

I have some advice for those on IIS and then a question for the experts:

If you are on Microsoft/IIS/ISAPI:
.htaccess is not recognized. Instead, I created 3 text files in the root directory. Then I renamed them to match the filenames in the data folder (ex:sitemap_1.xml.gz). Then I right clicked on these files, then selected Properties. Click the radio button for redirect, then enter the path to the real file in data. Do this for all 3 files.

When complete, I suggest you go to a browser and enter the URL's to confirm the redirects are working.

On to my question:
I have about 1000 pages that are in the same directory as my forum. Any way to get this software to spider them and add them to the sitemap?

Thanks,
Danny

I'm not sure if it's a coincidence or not but since installing this my indexed pages on Google have climbed from about 209,000 to 716,000. Definitely recommend it. :)

Skylighter

11-14-2007 06:26 PM

Yes, it works with 3.6.8

Another tech note:

Careful not to use ampersands (&) or "greater than" (>) signs in your extra-url file.

You can input ampersand as &

Also, make sure you check the validity of your sitemap file with Google.

I'm using downloadsII mod on my site, so I included the downloads2.php file in sitemap, however I'm getting database error while generating the sitemap

Quote:

...
[addon module] vbseo_sm_downloads2.php [114s (+0s)]
Database Error Database error

can anyone please confirm that the addon is working with the latest version of downloadsII ?

Thanks

winstone

11-15-2007 11:06 PM

here is the working one for latest version of downloadsII:

replace vbseo_sm_downloads.php file content with:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $mods = $db->query("SELECT id,name FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "dl_cats ORDER BY `id`");

    while ($mod = $db->fetch_array($mods))

    {    

        $url = $vbseo_vars['bburl'].'/downloads.php?do=cat&id='.$mod['id'];



        if(VBSEO_ON)

            $url = vbseo_any_url($url);



          vbseo_add_url($url, 1.0, '', 'daily');

    }



    $mods = $db->query("SELECT id as fid FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "dl_files");

    while ($mod = $db->fetch_array($mods))

    {    

        $url = $vbseo_vars['bburl'].'/downloads.php?do=file&id='.$mod['fid'];



        if(VBSEO_ON)

            $url = vbseo_any_url($url);

          vbseo_add_url($url, 1.0, '', 'daily');

    }

changes in file are:

file_cats -> dl_cats
file_files -> dl_files
order by `order` -> order by `id` (not sure about this one but it's working)

and here is the code for vbseo_sm_download2.php with optimized links:
(should already have custom rewrite rules for downloadsII in vBSEO control panel)

PHP Code:


		
			
function ez_seo($ezlink){

    $ezlink = preg_replace('/[^a-z,0-9\.]/i', '-', $ezlink);

    $ezlink = str_replace('---', '-', $ezlink);

    $ezlink = str_replace('--', '-', $ezlink);

    if ($ezlink{0} == "-") $ezlink{0} = str_replace("-", "", $ezlink{0});

    if (substr($ezlink, -1) == "-") $ezlink = substr($ezlink, "", -1);

    return strtolower($ezlink);

}



    $mods = $db->query("SELECT id,name FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "dl_cats ORDER BY `id`") or die(mysql_error());

    while ($mod = $db->fetch_array($mods))

    {    

        $url = $vbseo_vars['bburl']."/downloads/".$mod['id']."/".ez_seo($mod['name'])."/";



        if(VBSEO_ON)

            $url = vbseo_any_url($url);



          vbseo_add_url($url, 1.0, '', 'daily');

    }



    $mods = $db->query("SELECT ff.id as fid, ff.name as fname, fc.id as cid, fc.name as cname FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "dl_files ff LEFT JOIN dl_cats fc ON ff.category=fc.id") or die(mysql_error());

    while ($mod = $db->fetch_array($mods))

    {    

        $url = $vbseo_vars['bburl']."/downloads/".ez_seo($mod['cname'])."/".$mod['cid']."/".$mod['fid']."/".ez_seo($mod['fname'])."/";



        if(VBSEO_ON)

            $url = vbseo_any_url($url);

          vbseo_add_url($url, 1.0, '', 'daily');

    }

example output for file: TeSt - FiLe in category (HOT) SeCtION

category: domain.com/downloads/1/hot-section/
entry: domain.com/downloads/hot-section/1/123/test-file/

to change the format of output, just play with $url

Note: ez_seo function only works with English names & characters

this feature is only support for vBSEO-enabled boards, do you have vBSEO installed?

patch developer,

make sure that you defined permissions as described in installation instructions (0777 for vbseo_sitemap/data/ folder)

mpoorrajab,

vBSEO2.4.5 or greater is required, if you don't have it you should disable "Include vBSEO URLs" option.
