Looking forward upgrading it on my 3.5.2 board.

nevermind

vbseo im sorry for boder you my friend but, i did submit the right addres to google thanks to your post https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=373

and now i do try to submit it on yahoo as you said there and i have this:

Your submission request was not accepted because:

* The following resulted when trying to access your document:

404 - Not Found

Please correct and resubmit the form below.

btw im on 1.3 version of vbseo site map i will upgrade to 1.4 right now and thanks for your support.

EDIT:

there is now a .htacces on the data folder? and it say deny for all so how the bot will download the sitemap?

Algren_San,

Please make sure that you have exactly the same rewrite rules in .htaccess as specified in current product description (it was changed in one of the recent updates)

Yes, it was added to provide a better security. Sitemap files will still be accessed correctly, because they are not downloaded from vbseo_sitemap/data/ folder, but from your forums root (rewritte using .htaccess).

got ya

now it says timeout O_o bahahaha but its ok maybe is a miss configuration on my server so, i will report what happened as soon as possible :P

thanks iojam :)

well ... i doubt 110MB, here it Text Format File sitemap.txt.gz (832.49Kb)
but same with the timeout ... any solution found, yet?

Totti,
Earlier version of Sitemap Generator has generated plain text file (that's why it was so large), current one supports gzip compression to reduce file size.

Please try to resubmit the sitemap several times - it happened to me to get timeouts for big sitemaps, but at the 5th try (or so) it has been successful.

no way ... tried it 20 times ... :D

But how come the path in the overview points to vb root while the genrated file are in the root/vbseo_sitemap/data dir, which is forbidden for yahoo anyway?

p.s.: i removed all but a thousand lines from the txt and uploaded it as txt ... yahoo still didn't want it :D

It works because "root sitemap URLs" are rewritten with mod_rewrite directives in .htaccess. :)

You should try to pack it back to gzip after removing the part, because plain text sitemap are WAY bigger and you will get timeouts for them.

A new (minor) update: vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator version 1.5 has been released.

Changelog:

(1) FIX: count showpost pages in the reports.
(2) FIX: descending date order display issue
(3) UPDATE: "View SE Bots Activity" overview page contains now the summaries for the main SE bots per day allowing to analyze bots acitivty easier
