The control panel vBSEO Google / Yahoo Sitemap for vBulletin is saying my forum home page is http://www.new-age.net.au/forums.php

But it is not -
And this is causing problems .



It is http://www.new-age.net.au/forums/index.php

Please how do I correct this? :confused:

Admin CP | vBulletin Options | Site Name / URL / Contact Details

What do you have in the Forum URL and Homepage URL text boxes?

Also, do you have vBSEO installed as well as the vBSEO Sitemap? Check that your sitemap settings in the ACP reflect this correctly for your forum.

New-Age 05-01-2009 05:47 AM
Silly me!!!

Thankyou I have fixed it !

No I dont have vBSEO installed I only have the vBSEO Sitemap installed.
Do I need to have the vBSEO installed as well?

Another question please !

I have a Google Tools account and 2 weeks ago I generated a site map from some generator and submitted it.

Because I have just installed vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap in my copy of vBulletin 3.8 do I go and delete the site map that I have submitted to Google sitemaps?:D

djbaxter 05-01-2009 05:56 AM
Don't delete it. Just edit it if it has a different filename from the one generated by the vBSEO Sitemap.

New-Age 05-01-2009 06:24 AM
Thankyou!

No I dont have vBSEO installed I only have the vBSEO Sitemap Generator installed.
Do I need to have the vBSEO installed as well? :confused:

No. The Sitemap is a standalone add-on. There's just a slight difference in configuration if you also have vBSEO installed.

This is the link you use and report to Google, etc.

However, the actual location will be redirected by an .htaccess file mod_rewrite. Did you add the required lines to your .htaccess file?

Black Tiger 05-01-2009 02:13 PM
As to my post #201.

I can state now it IS the same problem as in februari last year, which was not fixed in this new version in spite of the fact that a complete solution was given.
A missed opportunity, pity. Maybe somebody can have a look at it and change the release zipfile to have the fixes included.

S7rik3R 05-01-2009 02:56 PM
Thank You running like a charm in my website.

I realize that. I guess what I'm wondering is how I can block the vBulletin RSS feed which is being picked up as an additional sitemap. And because of this, google is warning me that it's duplicate content. I was thinking the .htacess file might already have a line in it to prevent google from picking up the rss site map feed.

Since it doesn't seem to be part of the stock .htaccess file, is there something I could add to stop google from picking up the vBulletin rss feed so I don't get warnings about duplicate content. :)

I could not find the .htaccess file in my files of vBulletin Forum so I uploaded the htaccess file
from the htaccess folder in vbseo_sitemap- 2-5

iojam 05-03-2009 09:35 AM
Black Tiger,

yes, you should apply the same fix.

Chris!,

you can try to create robots.txt file in domain root with:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /external.php

Black Tiger 05-03-2009 12:04 PM
Thanks Chris.
But it would be very nice if the files too would be upgraded so with the next upgrade everything will go ok.;)

Come2Daddy 05-03-2009 09:04 PM
I don't get it.

Actually, I installed it so my forums urls would change into .html instead of .php
but I don't see niether this nor vbseo brand on the footer of my forum

is my situation as it should be?? or I should install some other plugins??

This isn't vBSEO - that is a paid product you can find at http://www.vbseo.com

This is a free and independent add-on by the people who created vBSEO. All it does it generate sitemaps for search engines. It doesn't rewrite URLS or do anything else except the sitemap.

I see

thank u buddy :)

vbplusme 05-04-2009 09:44 AM
I am wondering what the recommended "exclude" list is for this sitemap? How does it handle/manage duplicate content?

Ogmuk 05-08-2009 12:48 PM
For those without Apache, ISAPI_Rewrite 3 Lite's httpd.conf can block direct access to the data directory this way:
Code:
#Deny all
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/forum/vbseo_sitemap/data/
RewriteRule .? - [F]

The thing works fine on my test forum but I'm getting an error when running it on my live server:
Code:
[create sitemap file] filename: sitemap_27.xml.gz, number of urls: 19334 [3,470.2Kb mem used] [291s (+0s)]
[create sitemap in text format] part #28 [3,470.1Kb mem used] [291s (+0s)]
[create sitemap index] filename: sitemap_index.xml.gz, number of sitemaps: 27 [3,474.4Kb mem used] [291s (+0s)]

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 16777216 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 36363178 bytes) in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mydomain.com\httpdocs\forum\vbseo_sitemap\vbseo_sitemap_functions.php on line 1537

I'll try increasing the PHP Memory Limit in php.ini.


EDIT: Yeah, it worked fine when increasing the memory to 48mb.

I'm pretty sure it's being caused by urllist.txt.gz, which is precisely that size. No way to make it create it in parts and then, when it's done, merge the parts together? That way it would work for those who do not have access to php.ini. This way I'll need to keep increasing my memory as my board gets bigger.

Bug:
Quote:
Generate Yahoo-Compatible Text Sitemap
Select "Yes" to automatically generate a text format sitemap with 1 URL per line.

This text sitemap must be manually submitted to Yahoo at http://submit.search.yahoo.com/free/request/.
Should be: https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/submit?

i have installed this Mod , But When I want to submit sittemaps , i Got 403 Forbiden error .
I Have Copyed Sotemaps to Forums Root Folder , But Then I Got 404 Can not Find error .
When I Type Sitemapp Url In Broeser It Will Open , But Gogle return 404 . Why this Happen ?!
data folder is 777

Ogmuk 05-09-2009 09:31 AM
You shouldn't copy or move the data to the forum root. That's what the htaccess is for:

Quote:
Note: If you already have an .htaccess file in your forum root, DO NOT upload the vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap .htaccess file as it will replace the contents of this file. Instead, enter the following code in your 'forum-root/.htaccess' file at the bottom:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]
If you have IIS instead of Apache, then use ISAPI_Rewrite 3 Lite but since you're getting forbidden errors it looks like the htaccess files are working for you. Once you submit, then use this link: http://www.yourdomain.com/forum/sitemap_index.xml.gz - and not http://www.yourdomain.com/forum/vbseo_sitemap/data/sitemap_index.xml.gz - because that will give a forbidden error. The first link will redirect the search engine to the second link (because of the htaccess file) and it will not give a forbidden error.

Fleud 05-13-2009 03:34 AM
Going cross-eyed right now. Tried to read 4 or 5 pages of comments but i have not found an identical problem. I generated the site map and it seems to be working. I could actually download it and un(g)zip it and it looks like a valid xml site map. But when I go to the link it doesn't work. I'm left with...
Code:
This page contains the following errors:
error on line 1 at column 1: Encoding error
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.
(And of course nothing below that... that's contained in a red box.)

Link if you want: http://www.fleud.com/sitemap_index.xml.gz

First few lines of .htaccess are

Code:
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on

#SEO_Sitemap
RewriteRule ^((urllist|sitemap).*\.(xml|txt)(\.gz)?)$ vbseo_sitemap/vbseo_getsitemap.php?sitemap=$1 [L]

...
[/code]

Thoughts?

HighRollerX 05-13-2009 03:55 PM
How do I do this? You will be required to login by providing your "Sitemap Interface Access Password" from your vBSEO Sitemap settings in:

What should my option settings be, I made my best guess...

Fleud 05-13-2009 04:06 PM
If you didn't set a password in the config, it should be blank. Just press the login button. If you set a password and forgot, you can go into your admin control panel and change the password.

HighRollerX 05-13-2009 07:22 PM
I can't figure out how to run it tho...I don't have vbSEO, is this a problem?

HighRollerX 05-13-2009 07:45 PM
I have it installed, It's in my adminCP...I have it turned on...But how do I run it...vbseo_sitemap.php << that file doesn't exist...It never came with the download? HELP ME!!!

It should be part of the download. It is for me. Try downloading it again?

vbplusme 05-14-2009 01:57 PM
vbseo_sitemap.php is suppose to be in /upload/vbseo_sitemap/ folder.

Fleud 05-14-2009 02:25 PM
Any thoughts on the error...

Code:
This page contains the following errors:
error on line 1 at column 1: Encoding error
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.
More details post 226. Thanks.

vbplusme 05-14-2009 02:52 PM
Assuming you have your sitemap listed there, Google webmaster tools might be able to give you some clues what might be wrong. It generates a report on the sitemap and if it contains errors or not... HTH

kalisekj 05-14-2009 09:45 PM
For Those receiving :
Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in [path]/vbseo_sitemap/index.php on line 259

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in [path]/vbseo_sitemap/index.php on line 260

I went and chmod all directories under VBSEO to 777 and that got rid of my errors.

Dollarsign 05-15-2009 03:07 AM
Okay guys my forum doesn't have this mod installed, can someone please tell me how this will improve my forum?

And do I need to sign up with a google account or something to use this or will it automatically start working?

Will this improve my ranking in the google search engine?

Thanks :erm:

veyissen 05-15-2009 08:29 PM
I manually run the sitemap generator from the vbseo_sitemap panel and it says

[SECTION START] tags [8,993.9Kb mem used] [206,838s (+24,781s)]

and waiting so nothing happens.

what should I do?

Fleud 05-15-2009 08:53 PM
When I visit my site map url this is what I'm presented with...
HTML Code:
<sitemapindex xsi:schemaLocation="            http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9            http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/09/siteindex.xsd">
−
<sitemap>
<loc>http://www.fleud.com/sitemap_1.xml.gz</loc>
<lastmod>2009-05-15T02:02:34+00:00</lastmod>
</sitemap>
</sitemapindex>
Is that valid? Or should it be showing the contents of the gzip?

Edit: AH, if I then paste in that inner link, it shows me the full site map. I suppose this is the way it should be for google/yahoo and friends to find it?

Abhik 05-17-2009 12:14 PM
Hello,
I am getting XML Pursing Error

Code:
XML Parsing Error: no element found

How can I fix it? I am getting this for the sitemap index as well as all the generated sitemaps. sitemap_1.xml.gz, sitemap_2.xml.gz, sitemap_3.xml.gz ....

iojam 05-18-2009 09:09 AM
veyissen,

check the html source of that page to see if there is a database error.


Fleud,

yes, that's correct.


Abhik,

you should submit it to Google: https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/dashboard
