Okay I have a few questions and hopefully someone can explain them to me....
I installed this hack fine and everything seems to be working fine or at least I hope so...
My site map is located at
http://www.mysite.net/forums/sitemap_index.xml.gz. I added a robots.txt and put inside
http://www.mysite.net/forums/sitemap_index.xml.gz. Well I went to google add my sitemap and put the link in and it loaded.. How will it upload to google automatically? Also whats the point of have .htaccess? Is it needed? Is robots.txt needed or should I get rid of it..? In the vBSEO settings theres a spot for your "Yahoo ID", but I thought this hack doesn't auto upload to yahoo? Whats the point of having the ID?
I saw someone put this for his robots.txt
Code:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /ajax.php
Disallow: /attachment.php
Disallow: /cron.php
Disallow: /editpost.php
Disallow: /image.php
Disallow: /inlinemod.php

Disallow: /usernote.php
Sitemap: http://www.mysite.net/forums/sitemap_index.xml.gz
Is all that necessary or do I just need the Sitemap:
http://www. etc..........
Thanks for the much needed help!
